The FCC ticket office at Finsbury Park is a *long* way off the ball -
when I lived in FP I frequently had to go to KX to buy complicated
(but legit) tickets that should have been issue-able at FP, because
the FP FCC (WAGN at the time, I think, but same guys, different suits)
lot simply didn't have a clue.


I had similar issues buying tickets to/from a zone boundary on this
route some years ago, when WAGN were the operator. At the time I had
a zone 1,2,3 gold card, but periodically travelled up the GN line.
Sometimes I bought returns or single from Finsbury Park, sometimes
from a WAGN station further up, but my journey was always to or
from Finsbury Park.

Finsbury Park always sold me a different ticket from the others,
one being a boundary zone ticket and one a ticket naming a specific
station. The prices were slightly different as well, although the
balance shifted from year to year.
