I am puzzled as to why a pink validator touch is needed to select a
cheap fare between Worcester Park and Canary Wharf.
The obvious route via Waterloo NR and Waterloo LU would involve a touch
out and touch in and would incur a via zone 1 fare - if gates are
operational.
Can anybody suggest a via zone 1 journey, which would not involve gates?


Via Clapham Junction and change at West Brompton - no gates on the
interchange. Long way round for a short cut but possible nonetheless.
Change to Jubilee Line at Westminster.


Thanks, again, Paul. That is just what I was looking for.
