The removal of Advance Purchase Tickets on the Day from ticket offices is a decision for the operator.

Advance tickets are still available for purchase until the day before travel from ticket offices but are no longer available as Advance Purchase on the Day products. Advance Purchase on the Day products are still available through Ticket Vending Machines and digital channels.
