Are there any left, I thought they'd all been converted now?

Redbridge, Millbrook and Beaulieu Rd are the three locally, they each just
have a permit machine, but it is a new style by S&B, not the familiar NSE
red painted device.

I'd expect Longcross to have no TVM, (as NR Enquires confirms), but I'd
have to search for a fifth station, someone else may know...

Makes sense I suppose, there can't be a lot of traffic at those
stations. I'm always surprised that Beaulieu Road is still open IIRC
even the local pub/hotel has shut.

It's quite unusual in having a far better service on Sundays than on Mon -
Sat.

A feature it shares with the Norfolk Broads stations of Berney Arms and
Buckenham. Berney Arms has two trains eachj way Mondays to Saturdays, but 4
or 5 on Sundays, while Buckenham now seems to have no service Mondays to
Fridays, one each way on Saturdays, but 3 or 4 on Sundays.

I was going on secondhand info that they were made by S&B - they seem to
have matched the S&B colour scheme to a certain extent, which might explain
the mistake...
