It will be a condition of the contract. If you host FS you have to do a security review and decide where it is needed before you can host. Any public level crossings would be high up the risk register, especially the unmanned ones.

I think you are quoting the 14 day in advance rover fare. So, for the turn up and go customers the tariff makes a bit more sense.

To be honest, I have to no idea what you are on about. Buy a full line including Whitby rover online, without gift aid, it's £34.65. Why would anybody go and ask for a £35 3/4 stop ticket? Better still, buy a gift aid and get a voucher back to...
