A contact is going to be commuting between Walthamstow and Feltham in
preparation for a new job and asked me to enquire about fares. It is
a part time job and only temporary so a season ticket or annual
Travelcard is not economical - the most suitable are single fares and
my contact is prepared to avoid zone 1 to receive cheaper single
fares. My contact's local station is Walthamstow Queens Road, I've
been searching for single fares on the Oyster system but apparently
none exist for a journey between Walthamstow Queens Road and Feltham.
I refuse to believe this.

Fares do exist and are available from *Walthamstow Central (London
Underground)* - Feltham, interchanging at Highbury & Islington
(Victoria Line - LOROL NLL) and Richmond (LOROL NLL - SWT) for £2.30
off peak.

Why are fares not available from Walthamstow Queens Road - Feltham
via Gospel Oak (interchange LOROL GOBLIN - LOROL NLL) and Richmond
(interchange LOROL NLL - SWT)? If no fares can be produced, my
contact will have to walk an additional 10 mins to Walthamstow
Central for a journey that should in reality be available from
Walthamstow Queens Road. Absolute madness.

I ran into this with a Highbury & Islington-Putney journey which was
discussed here. The problem was switching from TfL-scale fares to SWT- scale
at Clapham Junction.

You might find an option which involves breaking the journey at Richmond.
There is an Avoiding Zone 1 via Gospel Oak or via Blackhorse Road and
Highbury & Islington fare from Walthamstow Queens Road to Richmond at £2.20
peak, £1.40 off-peak.
