Quote:
The Heriot-Watt University student claimed in a radio interview yesterday that the argument with the conductor was the fault of another Scotrail employee, who had advised him to buy two single tickets for his return journey from Polmont to Edinburgh Park.

He said that when he tried to explain the situation to the conductor he was told to buy another ticket or leave the train.

But The Falkirk Herald can reveal that this explanation has been dismissed by a rail industry insider.

The source said: “The claim he was advised to buy two single tickets does not ring true.

“Clearly, it is cheaper to buy a standard day return. And at all times on the tape, he shows only one ticket. It was for his outward journey in the morning from Polmont to Edinburgh Park - not for his return trip at night.”
The student seems to be blaming everybody .....
