Ticket offices should stay open to assist disabled, blind and old people negotiate buying tickets. Billingshurst station very often has a ticket machine that is out of order, does one then get on the train with no ticket?

Don’t close ticket offices The upheaval and difficulties for older and disabled people will be too much. Many of us still use cash. It is just another means of dehumanising society. We don’t want it. Tell the WEF to leave us alone. Govt take note we are tired of being pushed about. You will pay at the election. Mick Lynch for Prime Minister!!
