I did one of the things mentioned on Wednesday.

After an appalling journey in a packed train after two cancellations
heading that way (and some outrageously bad PIS, which is a whole
nother thread) I found the now excessive crowd of people trying to
leave the station were being prevented from doing so by an arbitrary
ticket check.

When I finally got that far, I strongly expressed my dismay that they
had the cheek to delay us by several more minutes (not to mention the
safety hazard) after such an appalling journey, and made no attempt to
show a ticket.
