The Shere machines used by Chiltern Railways do - there is a

As do the Shere machines at Cambridge, but only later in the day.

SWT are planning to add that feature "within the next year" - latest
(today in fact) SWT free magazine, p9.

Also, referring back upthread, "looking at ways to make buying
GroupSave from our machines possible" p28.


Seems to me this is a lot easier for staff than a machine - I see many
groups, especially youngsters, who buy individual tickets, a person behind a
window may well be able to ask 'are you all together' but a machine can't,
surely it can only work if people ask for multiple tickets in one
transaction, or does the machine ask everyone if they are part of a group,
delaying everything?
