I always think its funny and annoyng how I can use my student discount rail card at a station booth and get a discount, but not when buying a ticket on the train.

As it happens im from a small village that calls a piece of concrete and a bench its train station. One day the train comes along, no where for me to get a ticket so on I get...

Ticket conducter : Tickets please
me: can I get a single to.....and ive got a rail card
TC: Cant use them on here - stations only
Me: but theres nowhere to get a ticket on the station
TC: Sorry - not my fault, thats £lots of money
Me: Make you feel good ripping of students does it?*

*May not have actually said that....
