Why do we say ‘book a ticket?’🎫 🧐

[@abrr2000]

I like the simplicity of the old 1st and 3rd class system. Rather than the confusing infinate word sallad of ticket types we have now.

[@richardswiderski4985]

Interesting.

[@PeterT1981]

Fascinating, informative and high production value. Well done!

[@FoxfieldRailwayOfficial]

Thank you for saying so, and thank you for watching!

[@sirrliv]

Fascinating stuff! Though I cannot speak for rail travel, regarding the similar experience of air travel based on recent experience, I definitely prefer the certainty and old fashioned reliability of a paper ticket rather than relying on dodgy apps and e-mail links on phones that can leave you stranded should your battery die.

[@FoxfieldRailwayOfficial]

It can be panic inducing if you go out for the day, drain your battery, and then have no ticket for the return journey!

[@sirrliv]

@@FoxfieldRailwayOfficial Indeed. Especially when your phone is old and has a battery life of only a few hours if you don't use it or sometimes less than an hour if you do.

I knew that about booking a ticket. 😁 If only I could remember how I knew? Instead of the simple Edmondson ticket, you now get 4 tickets and a receipt. 😋 I prefer card tickets because my phone loses data when I'm out and the app doesn't work.

[@SDE1994]

well, if you have an online ticket and your phone dies, your a bit screwed, so physical is better

[@richardswiderski4985]

Great video

[@GianUbertoLauri]

Thank you for this nice video. Did you ever had tickets the size and weight of a computer punched [ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punched_card ] card in UK?
