I still remain convinced that this big bang of closing all TO in one

and suddenly start using machines is doomed to failure and chaos will
ensue - and that's just considering the people who are queuing, by
choice, to buy "normal!" tickets, ignoring all of the edge cases that
the machines can't handle.

Who says they are going to close them all at once? I thought they
had been closing ticket offices for some time.

Have any ticket offices been shut so far? I thought they were all still
there, but many suburban station offices are only used for part of the
day.

It's a long time since I used East Putney with the ticket office open. But
It's also a long time since I used it in the morning peak.
