I also liked the scratched corner where the ticket has been rubbed along the ground by passengers feet as they get on and off the train, It is unique and was created accidentally. I like that nature and I like seeing things like that in design, a physical insight into the scene of a train and the turmoil it goes through. You can't express this in a well designed typeface or layout.

Train Ticket
On Monday I found a train ticket under my seat on the Wakefield-Huddersfield train. I noticed it had a number on the back which intrigued me at first, I wondered if it was a phone number or a reference number for something. If so why did the person throw it away, it looks like important information which they probably wrote down so they can remember it, unless they dropped it by accident then I wonder when they found out they dropped it. Or if it is indeed a phone number it could have been someones attempt at meeting someone new but the other person did not share the same interest so threw the number away discreetly so not to offend.
