Train Conductor Uses Detective Work to Bust Fare-Evading Passenger
Train travel can be surprisingly expensive - sometimes it costs more than a flight. We're looking at you, Amtrak. On a recent rail trip to Edinburgh, Scotland, comedian Ignacio Lopez witnessed a fellow passenger attempt to lie his way out of paying the proper fare. Unfortunately for the cheapskate, the train conductor (train guard if you're fluent in Brit-speak) was a hell of a lot smarter than expected.

Lopez's story begins innocently enough. He describes a fellow passenger who is really good at sleeping on trains - a skill that has long escaped me and fills my heart with passionate envy.

Our slumbering angel was awoken by the "train guard," who asked for his ticket. The sleeper explained that he had to buy one, and that he had gotten on the train at Carlisle. Train guard did not buy this.

B-b-b-busted. The conductor grabbed the receipt from the dude's table and pointed out that it was issued over an hour ago. Interesting.
