New PTACs
 
The Mayor of London is issuing new PTACs for LU Staff and NR Staff with an
Oyster Card. I got mine yesterday and it doesn't require to be stamped every
year. It is made out of plastic (similar to oyster) and not like that flimsy
card before. Nice to see a bit of colour apart from red!

Enjoy the Routemaster while you still can.

I suppose yours is a first class one? ;)
Anyway don't go round telling everybody for gawds sake:) others wise that's
another nail in the already over inflated coffin of ideas punters have
about staff facilities.

Why would 'NR staff with an Oystercard' need one of those from TfL?
They get Box Passes from RSTL which enable them to get Priv.

I have to keep my red one, but use my new one as a 'Photocard' as do the
rest of the family
