I'm incredibly lucky to have Sheffield as my local ticket office, and asked them for a ticket on the the 20:18 Northern from Sheffield to Leeds. Online, with my 16-25 railcard I can get it for £4.30 as per the screenshot below (I don't normally use TheTrainLine this is purely for illustrative purposes). I asked them for this fare but was told it's online only.
Is there any truth to this, or is it just a case of Sheffield being Sheffield?
