I wish we still had the SWT machines on the stations I seem to use,
they've been mostly replaced by whizzy screen-based ones which are
demonstrably slower than the crawled-from-the-80s versions.

Although have some advantages (more stations, payment by plastic) speed
is not one of them.

Huntingdon has just been equipped with new machines. Having a spare
moment, I asked the ticket clerk what she thought.

"For complex issues they're wonderful, but they're let down by the
printer. APTIS could just zip them out and I could get rid of queues in
no time."

(or something close to that).
