There are 2 fares guides for zones 1-6 and zones 7-9. You can view them
via http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tickets/faresandtickets/2930.aspx


Before reading this in full, I had no idea that the system was so
ridiculously complicated - it must completely baffle the visitor from
overseas. *And even such a long document appears to give up at some
points - e.g. saying there are special fares on some overground
journeys, "ask at your local station for details".

It was also out-of-date even when first issued. *It claims you can use
Oyster on National Rail services between West Hampstead and Moorgate -
would be interesting for TfL to suggest what route to take.


West Hampstead -LO- Highbury & Islington -FCC- Moorgate?
