![]() I'm curious what the policy is at joint National Rail and Underground stations concerning TOC performance discounts. Walthamstow Central in a WAGN and Underground interchange station. The WAGN section of station has the bulk of ticket selling space (some four windows and seven ticket machines), whilst the Underground section consists of a single window which is often closed. Anecdotal evidence from staff at a WAGN-only station nearby suggests that the bulk of ticket sales at Walthamstow Central are for people intending to use Underground services rather than WAGN services. Therefore, apparently WAGN staff at Walthamstow Central generally refuse to apply the un-met performance discount to season ticket sales - currently 5% on West Anglia inner services - unless they see specific evidence of a WAGN via Liverpool Street route as they "know" (how?) that the bulk of ticket purchases will not involve a WAGN journey. Can they do this? Surely they can't have it both ways - get whatever revenue benefit they get as ticket sellers, but refuse to allow permformance discounts? There are numerouns other joint National Rail and Underground stations where this could happen. What happens elsewhere? Cheers, Jason. |
