Used to be a regular sight on United in the 1950s.
Guessing they were doing other things/duties and these revenue protection jobs have been created.
As a kid (a lot more recent than the 50's), the inspectors often got on and looked just like Blakey with their flat, peaked caps.

The guy yesterday was wearing a Revenue Protection hi-viz vest on top of his GNE uniform.
He did a Washington service and I saw him getting on a Chester based vehicle too.
