I've just noticed an interesting anomaly on the Freedom
Pass Map which can be viewed on or downloaded from the
Internet.

On each route the last station within the Freedom Pass area is
shown with a grey line projecting onwards; the grey line being
a route where free travel is never available. Understandably,
no stations are designated on the grey lines.

There is a single, misleading exception: Cheshunt. The Freedom
Pass area ends at Enfield Lock and Turkey Street, and on TfL's
map the grey lines start from there. But Cheshunt is shown on
the map and, to those not perusing cautiously, this suggests
that Cheshunt is in the Area. I nearly got caught out this morning.

Why has TfL made this single exception?

AIUI Cheshunt is not really in the Freedom Pass area. The Freedom Pass
is valid for travel to Cheshunt only on TfL's services. Hence the grey
line starts at Enfield Lock.

And on the map I have the grey line does extend a bit beyond Cheshunt.

The thing to note is that there are three different criteria which could
apply and if it meets one of these for then it Freedom Pass can be used
1) Is the station in London (except if using HS1)
2) Is the rail run by Tfl
3) Has there been a special case added. (E.g. Dartford and some Surrey
stations)

So Cheshunt is only reachable by Freedom Pass on Tfl Rail - ie Crossrail

Given type 2 Cheshunt is not the only station that not all NR trains
work on see Watford Junction and Shenfield. The reason it looks odd is
that there are two lines to Cheshunt from London and Freedom Pass is
only available on one, and the only other other stations like that I can
see are on HS1


Thanks. (But ITYM London Overground to Cheshunt.)
