I'm surprised that no-one has referred to this yet, though it doesn't
seem to appear anywhere on the Southern (or any other) website(s).
I've seen a poster at a Southern station, which has been there at
least a week, that states that from 2 January 2006, when new fares are
introduced, the London's Zone 6 will be extended to include the
following stations to the south of Croydon and Sutton:
Banstead and Epsom Downs
Chipstead, Kingswood, Tadworth and Tattenham Corner
Whyteleafe, Whyteleaf South and Caterham
Upper Wharlingham
Does this apply to One-Day Travelcards when travelling from outside
London -
ie where the ticket includes travel into London as well as unlimited
travel
within all the London zones?
Yes- in the same way as you've been able to use a ODTC (whether Z1-6 only,
or from an out-boundary station) to Epping, and various other stations
outside Greater London, e.g. Elstree.. It's also worth knowing that a ODTC
is valid on London Buses which run beyond the Greater London boundary - e.g.
you've always been able to use a ODTC to Caterham, or Dartford, or Swanley,
provided that you go there on a London bus and not a train.
