Regarding the sign attached below, does anybody agree that the wording is incorrect.
For example my local station (Fairwater/FRW) only has card ticket machines. Reading the wording of the sign it suggests that if you do not buy a ticket from the machine you may have committed an offence.
It doesn't make reference to the fact that if you have an alternate payment method that is not accepted by the machine i.e. Cash/Rail travel vouchers that you can pay on board.

Luckily this tends to be a moot point on Arriva, who pretty much always sell on board in Cardiff, one guard told me not to buy my full ticket because no one will check!

"Means to pay fare on demand" kind of covers it though?

Yeah I agree with "Means to pay fare on demand," it just seems that one point contradicts the other.
I am having it out with ATW on twitter currently, but I am only getting stock answers back at me.
