Tickets are no longer being issued at this Booking Office: they will be issued by the Guard. Passengers are requested to join the coach adjacent to where the Guard rides, where accommodation has been reserved for passengers joining at intermediate stations".

The railways were bound by rules and these helped keep workers and passengers safe. Signs declared what was allowed, and what would happen if rules were broken. Some of the warning notices are very long and required a good level of literacy to read and apply.
