I had my first experience of using the barriers today. Generally positive especially the always happy booking clerk nearest the platform.
I am a little unhappy at the barrier overhead. At 6ft 4" I just touch it. There are many at my height nowadays or even taller.
There seemed an abundance of staff to watch people going through. These guys did not seem overpolite or especially erudite in our native
language. They should follow the example of the excellent guy at Sydenham called Moses.
