I'm still not sure about what a penalty fare is for. If I arrive at a
station and am too late to queue behind a hoard of uk.rers looking up 17
different combinations of CDR's to save 50p over a saver, but have to get
that train, can I jump on and choose to pay a penalty fare at the other end?
Or would I be done for fare evading?

It might depend on whether you sought out anyone who happened to be on
the train selling tickets.
