16th September is the launch date.

A Tuesday?

It occurs to me that this is 2 days after the new TSGN franchise starts.
So perhaps "throwing some switches" in the computer department on the
Monday, ready for going live on the Tuesday.

Tends to point the finger at FCC as the one previously dragging their
feet.

I appreciate it's only supposed to be for Overground and Tube, but the
interavailability of tickets for example from Finsbury Park to Moorgate
must make it in effect available on the NR services over certain lines.

Or is it in fact just a co-incidence.
