And the Station forecourt is private property, and the PH "lurkers" are quickly finding out that Midland trains have a new parking attendant who is out to make a name for himself, pouncing on any private cars, and illegaly parked private hire cars who lurk too long, and even on Station staff who have been parking there on days off to go shopping. He must be on commission, the amount of tickets he's writing.


I think it's great that someone is moving on/ticketing the cars that shouldn't be there, don't you?


I don't get paid to think :D


Better if you dont think, it might hurt you :D

What area's of private land do you have in mind?


No where in mind, just all of it, that's the rules as far as i am aware. The only specific area i referred to was "the station rank" without the proper permit.


So PH
should definately avoid the station rank? A refreshing point of view.


I have always held this view, we have sent out countless memo's to the drivers requesting the same, if i see one of my lad's there im going to move him on myself. Sometime they don't listen to memo's so getting a ticket /getting busted might just do the trick, i can think of no reason why i would want them to park there.

No, but I take 100% of what I earn, I don't pay nobody for work, and never will.

Mine, all mine. :wink:

What even the % from the machine? :-k


I get 100% of the fare, the company has the added 10%, I even get a whopping 1% comission. :D

Saying that, the card offers have died a death this week, I think I may not have been the only one to get a machine! :shock:

I can think of a few reasons why they want to park there.
