Sunday night from Heathrow

In article ,
says...

Don't forget that soon T4L buses wont take cash payments even on the N9 late at night. This will really screw late arriving in bound tourists because they wont have the opportunity to purchase an Oyster card late at night.

Even paying by cash on the ex-N97 and now N9 buses at Heathrow was a problem for tourists because they usually only had notes fresh out of an ATM and the bus drivers never carried a float large enough to give them change. Time and again I have seen tourists with luggage abandoned at the Bust Station because the drivers refused to take them.

At least with the Heathrow FreeFlow Zone extending to North Heathrow and Harlington Corner and Hatton Cross tourists can get out of the Airport late at night - but that's no use to them when they can't then get into Central London.

Welcome to Britain - NOT.

'Twas ever thus.

When I lived in Snorbans many times I had to help people with Scottish
banknotes the Green Line drivers wouldn't accept.
