Hello everybody,
do you know how much was a ticket for the London underground in the
early '60s?

I found that a bus ticket for one stop was one and a half penny, and a
three-pence for about three or four stops in suburbs such as Edgware
or Stanmore. Is it right?

When I started work on Regent St in 1969 the Waterloo to Piccadilly
Circus fare was 3d. That would be just over 1p in currency or
USD0.02.

It cost twice as much to go from Waterloo to Oxford Circus, i.e. 6d of
2.5 new pence. That would be USD0.05 nowadays.

Soon after I started work there was a fare increase that doubled the
Waterloo to Piccadilly cost.

Needless to say that I find the present day London fare to be
extortionate.
