Thanks Steve, Ibrahim and Martin.I will try for having the person giving assistance helping me with the self-service machine this time.
I also had a suggestion off list to pre book with the Trainline.com. for a small fee they send all tickets by post that day if booked by 3.30.

Yes indeed, or you can go to the ticket window if open with the ticket booking ref and they can give you the ticket there I think. As long as u have the card with you on which you purchased the ticket, just stick it in the chip and pin machine as proof u bought it and the ticket's yours. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Jim O'Sullivan Sent: 01 September 2013 20:36 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Is there an alternative to self-service ticket machines for collecting rail tickets booked online? I have only used online purchasing of rail tickets when I have been travelling with a sighted person and we were able to collect these from the self-service machine at the departure station. Is there a way to get around this when I am travelling alone. If I have assistance booked will the person assisting me be able to help me with the machine? When I have travelled alone previously I have not pre-booked but just bought my tickets at the station ticket office and that is not so inconvenient. Just means getting to the station quite early in case there is a long queue. This will be a journey into London on South West Trains.
