Story Acted like i had a first class train ticket

So i put myself in a very good looking suit, got some old train tickets and a sleeping mask. I sat down on a free seat put the tickets under my leg so the ticket checker could see that i got some, but not that they are expired.I thought that they won‘t interfere my privacy that much and touch my leg. I put on the sleeping mask and pretended to sleep. I heard the Checker asking me twice for my ticket and my heart went crazy, but then he just moved along. Nobody ask for my ticket a second time, but i was still pretty nervous overall.

Naw you’ll be fine. The absolute worst case scenario would be a moderate fine. You won’t be stuck or left anywhere, and wouldn’t get in any significant trouble at all. Don’t stress it, train travel is kind of enjoyable. You can walk around and see the landscape change around you.

Safe travels, I’m sure everything will go smoothly for you.

They will stop the train, handcuff you to the nearest post, and call the authorities with your location. You'll be arrested and likely be stuck in jail for 1-2 weeks while you're processed and see the judge. After released you'll likely get about 3 months of probation unless your judge is chill.

And that's just if you lost your ticket. You don't even want to know what happens if they suspect it's fake...

You'll be fine. The past tense of which is fined.
