New TfL faresleaflet
 
There is a new TfL leaflet out mentioning a few changes:

Bus passes no longer need photocards from the 26th Sept

Tube tickets and LT cards are now valid on Silverlink from Gunnersbury
to Stratford, Custom House to North Woolwich, and Willesden Junction
to West Brompton.

Oyster Prepay may be available in the future on addtional National
Rail routes in future at different rates to the Tube rates.

Still no mention of capping.....

In the Oyster website if you search for "capping" in the "Ask Oyster"
section, they state that capping will not be made available until 2005.

"We are hoping that fare Capping will be introduced early next year - look
out for posters."

The Silverlink validity is good news and hints at the planned takeover
of these routes by TfL. Is Prepay valid on them? If so, you'll be able
to go a very long way for a £1 fare at weekends - Uxbridge to Upminster
or even Heathrow to Epping!

But before I speak too soon... when are the revised fares for 2005 due
to be announced? We're meant to be expecting fairly large peak-time
rises in Travelcards & the congestion charge, with possible
reorganisation of the zone structure and encouragement to use off-peak
services - which suggests major changes in ticket prices for all journeys.
