So what is the legal situation whereas the requirement
is to purchase these PTT tickets, yet the machines that
issue them have been removed?


Having offered legal tender for a ticket, they would not be sufficiently
stupid to take the matter to court.


As I explain above, legal tender is irrelevant to this debate, as a
debt doesn't exist at the point of payment. There are other reasons
why this might not get to court, but that isn't one of them.
