Thanks Chaps.
My station is Streatham Hill, so my Underground part is just to Canada
Water, then Overground journey to Crystal Place or Sydenham and change
to National Rail. What's the suggested touch in/out points?
Thanks,
Martin J


Touch in: Canary Wharf
Route Validation (Pink reader): Canada Water
Touch out: Streatham Hill

Surely for any journey via zone 1 you will have to pass through barriers
where you change from NR to LU (at London Bridge, Balham, Victoria etc). The
only way to get from Streatham Hill to Canary Wharf without passing any
barriers is via the ELL to Canada Water.

So the default fare if there are no intermediate touches, should be the
not-Z1 fare.
