Witness statements
How does one go about this? Do you just approach random people and ask them to sign/date your form? Do people ever tell you to sod off?

Re: Witness statements
Is it best to just approach station staff rather than Joe Public?

Re: Witness statements
No because staff don't tend to like people running around their network
You ask enough people and someone will sign the piece of paper

Re: Witness statements
Has anyone had station staff get arsey with you because you are doing the challenge? If you've got a travelcard, they can't exactly ask you to leave the tube network.

Re: Witness statements
I haven't personally but if you act in the correct manner then they won't really question you.
From back in the day when the stupid T4 bus existed, running through Heathrow was rather interesting with the police watching you intently though!!

Re: Witness statements
A member of staff at Paddington quite recently, told me off for telling people to stand on the right while going down the escalator.andytube wrote:Has anyone had station staff get arsey with you because you are doing the challenge?

Mind you, at Woodford I've had a member of staff come up to us and ask "So, how's it going?"

Re: Witness statements
The chap at Ickenham is very aware of the challenge.
I'm told at a different station, one member of staff even openes the gates as challengers arrive to avoid them using their paper tickets.

Re: Witness statements
Why did the bloke at Aldgate East ask you to leave the platform? None of them would really know you're doing the challenge, unless you come sprinting into the station screaming "Tube Challenge, get ouuta my way"

Re: Witness statements
tannoy?
I once had a BTP officer question me about my double back at Cockfosters- nothing more than that though.
