Just curious if fare evasion ever happens on Heritage Railways? Is anyone aware of this happening on any of them?
There are some Heritage Railways that use the very old compartment stock without corridors (where there is no way to walk between compartments without alighting from the train and boarding at another door) which would certainly make fare evasion very easy and simple.
Are there any enthusiasts that try to get a free ride or refuse to pay? Or are there even any ordinary non enthusiasts using it as public transport that fare evade?
I would be interested to hear anyone's experiences and views about this and if you have ever seen it happen. We always hear about fare evasion on National Rail so it would be interesting to know if Heritage Railways ever have this problem as well.
