Oyster Validation by Zen83237
Does anybody know what the law actually says about validating an oyster card. I questioned a revenue inspector at Watford Junc tonight regarding the lack of validators on platforms 5 & 6 at Wembley Central and their view was that a passenger was expected to hunt high and low for a validator or buy a ticket. Since Oyster is valid on the Southern trains from Wembley Central can they simpley...

New signs on London Overground by bowroaduk@yahoo.com
Can users help track the spread of the London Overground brand across the various parts of "London's new train set"? I understand that initial plans are just to cover the existing National Rail linier "banner" signs with stickers, then move to full Underground-style square signs in time as stations are refurbished. In additon any sighting of new LUL signage on the parts of the Bakerloo and...

I, for one, welcome our new newt-loving overlord by Mizter T
Today Mayor Ken takes over the ex-Silverlink Metro routes such as the North London Line as London Overground (LO). I specifically say Mayor Ken as I don't think it would have happened without him lobbying the government for this transfer of responsibilities. The inclusion of the North London Railway (as the Silverlink Metro routes are now collectively known) under TfL management was the result of...

Rant about DLR by alex_t
November 2007 - and new DLR station in Stratford still operates only with one platform. Second platform and footbridge are virtually complete, with no construction work for the past month (and for the platform no works for almost two months now) - so why they are not open? In fact I don't really care about the second platform (it's not like it will seriously improve current waiting times), but...

Routing in SE London by Dave A[_2_]
Ah, the eternal routing guide questions. I'm trying to work out if there is a point-to-point season ticket that would be valid at both Crofton Park and Brockley for journeys to London. I know the obvious answer is a Travelcard, but I'm specifically interested in point-to-points - even if from further out. At the moment I'm thinking Shortlands - London as you could potentially use it via...

Vital clue in the Watford Jn Oyster PAYG fares mystery... by Mizter T
One big question mark over Oyster PAYG acceptance on London Overground has been how fares north of Hatch End - i.e. outside the 6 London zones - will be handled. One incredibly obvious place to look, which I've only just thought of (d'oh!), is of course the TfL "Single fare finder" he http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/tickets/faresandtickets/2007/farefinder/ This doesn't provide any information as...

TfL Wreath at the Service of Remembrance by Ian Jelf
Looking at a recording of today's Service of Remembrance at the Cenotaph, it appeared to me that the wreath laid on behalf of Transport for London wasn't in the "Roundel" shape I seem to recall it being in previous years. Was I correct in my observations and - if so - does anyone know the reason for the change? I always thought it an especially appropriate and moving shape for a such a...

Marylebone Amersham via Beaconsfield by Walter Briscoe
On Saturday evening, I had to go from Barbican to Amersham. There was no Met service north of Harrow-on-the-Hill from which a bus was running at the cost of an extra hour. The Journey Planner suggested taking the Marylebone to Birmingham Snow Hill service to Beaconsfield and a Rail Replacement Bus to Amersham. I found no information on the Chiltern Railways site about the cost of this with a...
