we had to go into the office to buy a ticket instead of buying it at the counter. They love foreigners coming in as they can pose for complusory photos. There are two copies of the ticket, with carbon paper used to make the second copy. The carbon paper is removed as they write the price on the top ticket, and then a new, lower price is written directly onto the carbon paper, to make a copy. The difference is pocketed.
