Remember Those Platform Tickets?
Remember those platform tickets?......virtually every main-line station required one (only for an hour if you had the misfortune to have it clipped!) for entry onto the platforms in search of those elusive loco numbers! Large machines in the ticket halls issued the tiny documents upon receipt of a then quite expensive fare of 2p! Alternatively certain stations provided 'Edmonson' style cardboard equivalents directly from the ticket office. Below are a selection collected over the years and as can be seen came in (for some unknown reason) several colours. The suffix number or letter following the station name merely denoted the ticket machine.
