Default FPK refusing to sell BZ2 tickets

What is it that you think is (legally) wrong here.


They are claiming that their proposed dis-easement trumps the NCoC, when
several of us think it's the other way round.

Of course, if their proposed dis-easement is lame, then there's no
particular problem with them introducing it[1], but I'm afraid they'll
try to persuade passengers that it does have an effect, when it appears
it doesn't.

[1] This reminds me of the "Not Stansted" tickets that WAGN's Cambridge
ticket office used to issue by default, when because of the fares rule
it was valid via Stansted[2] anyway. So no harm in them selling the
ticket, apart from the fact that passengers (and worse - some grippers)
are liable to take it at face value.

[2] ie a fastish (in those days Central) train to Stansted, then
Stansted Express; rather than a direct train.
