Was on the cards as soon as the ticket machines appeared at the small stations. Did people really think that was for our convenience?
It’s why the rail unions fight so hard. Everyone joins because they know what’s coming. Driverless trains, barriers everywhere, no staff at all.
I god I hate the barriers, they are always half broken, and have caused so many useful side entrances and shortcuts to stations to be closed.
