At Paddington, FGW have put up a poster telling passengers to use the
platform 13 validator when the gateline is switched off.

Great! so everyone has to walk back to platformn 13 if they find the
barriers switched off to complete their journey on Oyster?
Isthat good enough? I'd beseriously ****ed off.....

That does seem silly. At all other stations, the validators on the
gates remain active when the gates are left open (and, indeed,
passengers are frequently exhorted to always touch in and out even if
the gates are open).
