[1] Although one day I must try them all at a GTR ticket machine and
see what it says. In another priceless bit of interoperability-NOT
their website claims such machines are only located *outside* the
Travelcard area. It's bonkers that this can't be done at Kings
Cross (apparently).

It seems GTR has no ticketing presence at King's Cross. I was directed to
the SPILL Thameslink ticket office.


But that's still within the Travelcard area.


But not at King's Cross, as was my point.


That particular hundred yards is not my issue - the dozen or more miles
to the first GN station beyond BZ6 *is*.
