Hello all.
Making a work related trip to Manchester next week. The north south mileage will be by coach and a colleague who is meeting me there will be with me much of the time. The fly in the ointment is the journey from an unstaffed shack to the city centre which I may or may not have to make on my 2nd day. Due to this uncertainty I dont really want to buy a ticket I wont use but due to my visual impairment I am unable to use the TVM to buy on the day.
I am asking as the number of threads about the truly shocking working practices of G4s staff in that area is enough to keep me awake at night.
Normally I would be using my Disabled railcard which would allow purchase on train or at the worst hopefully allow the RPIs at Man to let me go to the booking office.
Unfortunately my Railcard renewal which was ordered 2 weeks ago has got lost in the mail and has had to be reissued but wont be there on time.
Thoughts from the experts?
