It gave 'seek assistance' on the gate, but the nice man had a look at it, saw that it said 'any permitted' and let me through. It was also gripped on the train and then again failed to open the gate at Stratford International - let through again without any complaints. I don't know that this means that travelcards are really valid here though... I got my unguided tour on a bus around the Olympic site - as the only passenger - round to platform 11 and back into Stratford 'Regional' . Alex Thanks for that, Interesting stuff. How long would you say the transfer is from SFA to SRA? The SE website seems to say it`s a 20- minute bus journey and a five minute walk. Surely it's not 20 minutes? BS I can't see why normal travelcards should be valid - doesn't a ticket need to be routed "plus high speed" to be valid? The fare for Stratford to St Pancras appears to be £5 single, £6.50 off-peak return, £8.50 anytime return which isn't in line with the normal fares within the zones but actually works out cheaper than the rail+tube London fares. One wonders whether a travelcard routed "plus High Speed" - e.g. from a Kent origin would be valid for unlimited travel between Stratford International and St Pancras. I note that there are returns to London routed "plus High Speed" from Great Eastern origins but only point to point - no travelcards. Jonathan |
