What you need to know as ScotRail starts charging ticket dodgers minimum £10 fare​

The answer to this is "that you need to buy a ticket".

Er, not quite. You've always been able to buy a ticket on board on Scotrail trains (if the guard can be bothered selling them) and you still can, but now subject to a minimum of £10.
So the answer is "you need to buy a ticket before you get on, unless:
it would be over £10 anyway;
you can see the train is packed;
or it's after 22:00 on Friday or Saturday."
