Absolutely. Vauxhall, Elephant & Castle and Camden Town are three
particularly significant 'edge of zone 1' stations that instantly
spring to mind where this tactic can fruitfully be employed - but
there are plenty of others such as Bermondsey, Whitechapel, Essex
Road, Notting Hill Gate, Royal Oak etc which might work for individual
commuters.


On which note, it'll be interesting if any of Boris's bike hire schemes
appear at edge-of-Z1 stations. They're effectively intended to give
people an alternative to bus or tube onward transport from London rail
terminals, after all.
