I once had an Amtrak ticket go un-collected. There were severe delays, and they simply didn't collect them from anyone. It was unreserved so I didn't even have to do anything shady like ask for a refund to use it again.

Amtrak actually got more money out of me than they would have otherwise had they actually collected it, too, since I decided to use it the very next weekend, and of course I still had to pay to get there... I wonder if that is actually the wisdom behind things like those courtesy vouchers and whatnot, you get "store credit" on half a trip, you still have to pay the other half, and thus you have to ride again and are likely to have a better experience to erase the sour one...
