Pointless Ticketing - How many pieces of card?

This from @Al_S, via Twitter...

One return train journey Cambridge to Stirling.

Three changes, two reservable trains.

There's two seat and two, two-part, bike reservations per journey.

15 pieces of card!


Surely there has to be a better way?

Norries

With the Stourbridge Branch still awaiting the introduction of the comedy Plastic Parry Mover, bustitution remains the order of the day.

However, good news reaches Railway Eye from Cambodia!

For those in a hurry forward to 2mins and 10 secs into the video.

Perhaps this is the new, environmentally friendly, version of the Parry People Mover?

UPDATE: This from Captain Deltic...

Railway Eye is to be congratulated on discovering DfT's secret test track for the Bi-mode IEP. No wonder there is so much confidence in the project.

As Ali D might say: "Is it because I is in the black?".
