If the train was full, then I am rather on the side of the ticket colector. But if the train was empty then it is case of a petty "Jobsworth".

Maybe the musicians should have got out their cellos and played. That would have cleared the carriage.

Please note the TOC involved ................ First Great Western ............. Again!

They really are making a habit of stunts like this!
