Any guesses for what chaos awaits us on this train?

Edit to add: This is not the ticket, it was printed alongside the actual ticket, after asking for seating preferences.

    In the UK where this ticket is from, if you buy a ticket from the machine in the station it will spit it out in potentially multiple parts.

    You can see this ticket says “Valid only with Travel Ticket”, which means this is the second of two parts. The " Travel Ticket" (not pictured) is the one that actually allows you to travel on the train, and the reservation part (pictured) is the one that gives you a seat.

    So the mystery isn’t that there is no reservation, but that this ticket doesn’t even need to exist without a reservation. The machine could have just not printed this ticket at all.
