I really don't need much stuff to carry around. I have used this small bag now for a week, and yeah, hopefully get used to it. :-)
Alfred Williamson's were well-known manufacturers and printers of tickets used by many public transport operators. They were based in Ashton-under-Lyne in Lancashire.
About the set, ROBERT'S ART GALLERY: it is a ready-reference to a comprehensive view of my art from the 60s through the present. Each image usually has links to other sets of artistic references. This is the fanastic quality about the internet, and especially Flickr, we can all exhibit our work for everyone in America to view the moment we finish a work and post it online. Image if this technology had been available in the 60s. Would it have made a difference in the number of authors and artists who never achieved fame because they never got that "lucky break?" Now, each time we post a work, there is a chance we will get a "lucky break." And if we are not mobbed by agents who are eager for us to sign, we at least have a chance of getting a positive comment.
This ticket is cut by the conductor at the price it costs - in this case 6.50 baht. The ticket is about the size of my thumb nail! So antiquated and time consuming: it should have been scrapped years ago. We are in the DIGITAL age!
But new buses and systems are coming......in a few.. ...more.... .years!
Felix of Hatfield, Doncaster, started using T.I.M. ticket machines around the mid nineteen-fifties. The earlier type were these Bell Punch style tickets. 1/4 (one shilling and fourpence or roughly 7p) was the highest single fare, representing the cost of a single journey from Moorends to Doncaster. The wooden ticket rack is engraved with the letters S.T.D. and of course there are many possibilities although I believe that it may have beeen originally used on Sheffield trams. The tickets were actually printed by Williamson of Ashton-underr-Lyne and a Williamson punch was used to cancel them.

WMPTE setright (Walsall) tickets of either January 1970 or January 1971 - these dates being the only January dates pre-decimilalisation.
Fares of 1d to 11d were selected by dialling the appropriate number and rotating the handle, simultaneously releasing the small catch near the handle with the forefinger. Turning the dial right round to "blank" caused the pointer on the second dial to move up to 1/- (one shilling) and there were other settings for 1/1, 1/2, 1/8, 1/9 and 2/-. Felix had at least eight of these machines but they were replaced after 1971 when decimal currency was introduced. They could still issue tickets with 2d for 2p etc., but the counters which added up in shillings and pence were no longer of any use. Felix also had a motorised Setright machine which issued (stock) tickets on pay-as-you-enter services operated without a conductor.

Midland Red 'Day Anywhere' ticket. (66mm x 102mm)
What good value for money they were, particularly considering the vast area of Midland Red's operating territory.
I managed to clock up some pretty long days on these tickets after long close scrutiny of all the area timetables (I think there were six area timetables at that time). The earliest journey was something like 0530 in the morning from Birmingham, with the last journey arriving back in th city some time after midnight.
Cleaning out my wallet for our Vietnam trip, and I discover receipts and tickets from Bangkok, from April 2009! :)
As you can see, after living like a local in the rest of Thailand, we started living like expatriates in Bangkok :P

... except the bus tickets, that's very local! Two people for 26 baht, that's only 90c Aussie or 80c USD :)
In the early to mid 1980s LRT experimented with "Autofare 3" ticket issuing equipment. These scans show the front and rear of four tickets issued either in 1982 or 1983 on LRT buses 102 ( KSX 102X ) and 103 ( KSX 103X ).
The data printed on these tickets is considerably more comprehensible to the passenger than on the previous Autofare tickets. The top line shows the ticket serial number, time and date of issue (day and month, but not year) and fare stage on entry; the bottom line shows the ticket machine number, fare paid and Child (C) or adult (A) code, bus number (fleet ID rather than route) and ticket issuer.
After a few years of use both this and the original Autofare equipment was replaced on all LRT buses with Wayfarer II equipment.

A selection of post-decimal (ie. Feb 1971 onwards) Setright tickets of WMPTE. The slim tall digit fares tickets (ie. 008 and 015 in this example) believed to be issued by Walsall machines, the larger fare digits tickets (020 in this example) believed to be issued from former Midland Red machines.
Here are examples of some of the Felix Motors of Hatfield tickets in use up to (about) 1955. They were replaced by T.I.M. type tickets which were already in use on the Severn's buses that shared part of the Moorends to Doncaster service. Premier Motors (Harold Wilson Ltd.), the third company working the Moorends to Doncaster route continued to use Williamson tickets of this type for a while before adopting the Setright system.
Several UK municipal bus operators ran special airport services often, as in Manchester, with specially constructed vehicles. This ticket is from the Ringway Airport service in1957.
Blue Line and Reliance used a number of ticket systems over the years. In the early days, Bell Punch tickets were used. These were supplanted by the "Willebrew" system patented by Williamson, ticket printers of Ashton-under-Lyne. These remained in use at the Stainforth garage almost until takeover by SYPTE, when they were replaced first by some second-hand T.I.M. machines (the telephone-dial type) and then by Almex. The Willebrew system was invented by A. Williamson and John Brewer, hence the name Willebrew. The tickets were rectangular, long and thin, and were printed on both sides with all the possible variations in fares. The conductor used a sort of enclosed guillotine to snip off the ticket at the right fare. This also printed a stage number on the unprinted part of the ticket. On the reverse side there was a serial number, so by keeping a record of the next ticket number to be sold at certain key fare stages, a complete analysis of ticket sales, passenger loadings and destinations could be made. The snipped off portions of the tickets were retained in the machine and the conductor had no access to them, but they could be easily removed and analysed by office staff at the end of the shift. The pictures show how easily the system coped with currency changes in 1971, unlike more expensive systems which needed costly modifications or had to be completely replaced.
