Minor rant #1 of 3 for today - season tickets.
"New" (ie not renewal) season tickets are only purchaseable from noon the day before they start, "to avoid misuse of season tickets, they can only be purchased a short period of time beforehand."
Howso? I don't know the ins and outs but I assume that gates are programmed only to accept tickets that are in date, and the relevant railway staff are presumably trained to identify visually whether a ticket is in date or not. In what other ways can they be misused such that I can't buy one whenever I like?
Thanks for listening!
