Megabus/trains getting off early??

I wouldn't recommend trying this. The railways regularly manage to catch people who do things like buy Woking-Guildford tickets when they started at London. If you get caught in one of those stings, then they'd want to see that you have a valid ticket London-Woking. You don't. The railways catch people who buy Woking-Guildford tickets when they started at London by carrying out ticket checks between London and Woking. At which point, our man has a perfectly valid Megatrain ticket. That's not what I'm talking about. Hmm. I understand the /kind/ of operations you're talking about, but they're extremely unlikely to be relevant he SWT Portsmouth services always have a ticket check between London and Woking, so there's absolutely no point in carrying out the kind of raids that it / is/ worth doing between barriered stations on OPO trains. (in any case, the problem for the OP in this case isn't being caught in a raid, because there is no point on the journey when he doesn't have a valid ticket. It's just about not getting into a fight with the chap on the barriers) -- John Band john at johnband dot org www.johnband.org |
