Today I used Cannon Street NR, where the barriers were working and I
didn't see crowds of people with travelcards on Oyster waiting to be

Oyster Travelcard.


The problem was only affecting PAYG, which isn't available at Cannon
Street NR.

Somewhat amusingly BBC South East were trying to do a slagging off report on
the incident and both times they failed to get any sound with their picture.
Another report was also delayed and ended suddenly. I don't know if the
irony will have struck them - maybe there will be a report at 1030 on how
the BBC systems failed.
