Quite possibly - though I think a handwritten notice stating "Closed
for lunch" would have done the trick...

That would have been fine. The felony was compounded by the fact that
there
was a queue at the ticket office on the other side of the station and the
clerk there sent us around to the other one!


Quite obviously there is a serious lack of communication, which could be at
the heart of the problem.
