If I take the train between two stations when the ticket offices are closed, I can't actually buy the correct ticket for the journey (PRIV rate), as the ticket machines don't sell PRIV rate tickets.
For example, a journey such as Walthamstow Central - Hackney Downs taking place in an evening.
Are there other examples like this where the station ticket machine will not/cannot offer the passenger the correct type of ticket/discount for the journey? I know why they don't include PRIV rate tickets on the machines but am unsure if this is the same for other discounts, and hypothetically, what is the customer supposed to do?
