Running a site alone takes time and a fair bit of money. Adverts are far from enough to cover it and my living costs as a private renter.

Probably use this to not reopen majority of them once this is over
This will be the start of ticket office closures!
I totally agree rather than providing more staff at stations I too can see a reduction in staff at train stations and permanent ticket office closuresin the future.
Up will go fare evasion and crime at the stations and on the trains !!
