00:00I'm Elliot Badger, Retail and Travel Advisor working here, just some information on this
00:08little boat here.
00:10Nine years ago, I just went from the tickets in the ticket bin, wanted to have a look to
00:16see where people travelled either from here or people travelling from there to here, just
00:20to see where everyone travelled.
00:21I just started collecting them, kept looking each day to see if there was any new ones,
00:27before long I got 2,000 of them.
00:30I didn't have any idea that I was even going to be carrying it on, I literally just started
00:34looking at tickets and just kept collecting more before I knew it, it is what it is.
00:39I didn't know how long it would take or even if it would never be completed, I just kept
00:43it going.
00:44There's been a lot of very happy feedback for this, very very good feedback, especially
00:49people that are willing to just go out of their way, just so they can bring a ticket
00:54and put it on the board.
00:55It's incredible, absolutely incredible.
00:57We had 18 railway enthusiasts all arranged to travel to stations that are not on here
01:02in order to arrive at the same time, there's still 600 odd to go.
