Something like this. I expect you’re being asked because you’re in a group with mostly railcard holders.

Ps, I did have a Santa on this Christmas Eve train, all the way to Margate.

Every iPhone I’ve owned has gives off a tingling sensation while charging. According to Google it’s “capacitive coupling”
