Remembering the late, great Dolly, who brought joy, comfort and inspiration to so many - including the millions of children given free books through her Imagination Library. We will always ❤️ you.
@lner my 17 year old son is being denied access to the platform at Haymarket in Edinburgh as the guy is saying a 16/17 saved ticket is not valid in Scotland on an LNER service from Edinburgh to Aberdeen. The uber app let me purchase this ticket. Can you clarify the t&c on this.
@ScotRail LNER have confirmed a ticket I bought for my son with a 16/17 saver card was valid for the Edinburgh to Aberdeen service this afternoon despite a very rude member of your staff refusing him access through the barriers or listening to him.
