Barrier staff for the country platforms at Southern Cross Station have now been moved to the far end of the gate array

Possibly they got moved to an out-of-the-way place so they could focus on letting passengers with paper tickets through, instead of having to answer general passenger queries?

'Touch off and on' indicates a default fare has been charged

A default fare occurs when you don't touch off after making a trip - in the case of a zone 1+2 passenger, or someone using a Myki pass, the default fare is the same as the fare you were supposed to pay
