It’s a handy number to have. You never know when you might need it. There might be something happening that you’re already involved with. Sometimes you don’t want to interfere, especially if you want a comfortable journey and don’t want to cause a delay. But if you need assistance, it’s there…in theory. Will they delay the train or will they simply get on and keep the peace? Will they be in disguise or in full uniform? Will they need you to provide evidence? Are they going to be focused on who has tickets or who is disturbing the peace? Is the number still in use? Let’s hope that I won’t have to use them, though there’s times when it’s been close. And once they’ve dealt with the problem, how do they get back? Do they have to wait for a passing train in the opposite direction? Do they have a car to follow them? Or is it just chance depending on the procedure?
