Question about photos for verifying the challenge, do you have to include the time/date on the photo as that can be challenging (smartphones don't print time/date in photo typically). Could you instead upload the photo and then list boarding/alighting times you recorded separately (such as in a notebook)?

take a photo of the pid, it has the time on it. Also most phones attach metadata which contains the time the photo was taken.

Another question. Can you board services that are drop-off only or vice versa. eg. boarding the bathurst bullet from westmead towards central.

I would think you cannot board a service you are not allowed to board by the operator. So boarding a drop-off only train service would not be permitted.
