Why is there a ticket office /after/ the ticket barriers?
At several larger UK train stations, I have noticed that there is a ticket desk beyond the ticket barriers. This is the case, among other places, in Reading and Birmingham New Street. The desk is labelled excess fares.
What is the purpose of this desk?
