Tfgm Wayfarer

[AndyP]

Hello,

I was just wondering if you buy a wayfarer from a tfgm travel shop, do you get a proper card ticket?
I don't like buying from paypoint because you just a flimsy till receipt that rips or just disintegrates if it is raining.

When I last bought one, it was a card based ticket where you scratch off the day and month that you want to travel on.
I presumed it has changed since then

Thanks
Andrew

Buy one from a Northern TVM and you will get a card ticket.

I bought one from Tfgm travel centre at Shudehill and was given one on receipt paper like a bus ticket. I do wonder if you ask they will give you a card one.

There are some Northern TVMs though that give you plain white bog roll tickets:

Northern trialling PRT tickets from ticket machines

Northern have begun a pilot where station ticket machines will issue paper-roll tickets rather than credit card sized card tickets. The new tickets will be in the same style as those issued onboard and from EMR's 'smart kiosk'. Plain white paper roll will be used rather than orange stock. All...

No, only on the day.
