Fares to cross the Humber between Hull and New Holland could be bought at the ticket office on New Holland Town station, on the trains with connecting fares through to Hull or like this, directly upon embarking. The Triumph TR7 driver is seen handing over his fare to one of the MV Farringford's crew members who will issue the ticket. The crew members were employed by Sealink which was the brand name for the ferry services of British Rail in the United Kingdom. Most people would associate Sealink with the larger channel operations from the likes of Dover and Folkstone but they also operated other minor crossings such as to and from the Isle of Wight and here on the Humber.
