Hello all, my Mum and I don't travel often, but when we do, we always buy a ticket at the ticket office in Grimsby Town station.
We do not have nor want a railcard as travel is infrequent, but she gets a discount for being a wheelchair user, and I get a discount for being her assistant.
These tickets are not available at the ticket vending machines or online, nor did the staff member walking around the entrance with a handheld ticket machine know how to issue them last time at Grimsby Town on the 23rd of June, but as usual the ticket was available at the office. The tickets always have "DISCOUNT AUTHORITY" written at the bottom.
My question is, if ticket offices are closed, as the news is warning, how will disabled passengers without railcards be able to get the correct ticket without being overcharged?
Many thanks.
