Maryland with an Oyster travelcard?

Is it permitted to travel between Liverpool Street and Maryland with a Zone 1-3 Oyster travelcard? *There's no Oyster card reader to touch in or out at Maryland, though I've made the journey both ways several times without apparent incident. *That is, going from Maryland to Liverpool Street, the exit gates have always opened upon swiping my card, and going either way, I've never had any money deducted from my PAYG balance. If I were to encounter a ticket inspector at Maryland, would I be in trouble for not possessing a valid ticket? No problem at all. I've done exactly the same from Forest Gate for years now. Does one suppose that if the concept of the OEP can be got through the mind of the grippers, they are going to understand the difference between gripping before and after the travelcard boundary? Anyone in their right mind planning to travel on NR carries the Gold Card as well, to wave at the gripper in question. I expect that once PAYG and OEPs are introduced, all travelcard holders are going to be fair game if they haven't got one on NR. I expect that they won't. -- John Band john at johnband dot org www.johnband.org |
