Is there a website to plan visiting multiple stations?

I am looking to visit quite a few stations in one day and was wondering if there was an easy way to do it (e.g a website or app).

I currently use TrainSplit and RealTimeTrains, but AFAIK you cannot plan to leave the train to look around the stations.

These stations are Bexhill, Rye, Eastbourne, Lewes, and potentially Southbourne. The journey would start in Portsmouth.

Maybe its as simple as a staged journey on Google maps?

Please let me know!

Rubberised coating for Metal Ferrule

Hi, I use a walking stick and recently bought a new one. I am used to a rubber ferrule, but this has a metal one (it is an older wooden stick).

To get more grip, is there a rubbery coating i can add to the bottom, without massively widening the base?

Ruined Tickets

Hi, I was just wondering is there anything i can do for prepaid tickets that got damaged.

I recently collected prepaid tickets from the train station (using email code) for a long journey (CSA-LAN plus return) with split ticketing, amounting to 9 tickets and £72.

Unfortunately, on my way back from the station, my water bottle leaked in my bag and the tickets stuck together.

I spoke to station staff about getting tickets reissued and they were genuinely rude (blankly stared and just said "not my problem, we can only issue tickets once") and didnt offer any advice.

After peeling apart, the individual journeys are readable, and I presume the magnetic strips are working. Will this just entail begging guards/station staff to believe me, or do I have to spend another £72?

TLDR: Prepaid paper tickets got wet on way home from station, just about readable but crinkled. Is there anything I can do?
