Any Travelcard is valid for buses in *all* zones. A one-day Bus Pass costs £3 which I would not call highway robbery. Are the fares in Toronto subsidised out of taxation revenue? Yes, but by comparatively little in comparison with most systems in North America - a little over 80% of the TTC's income comes from the farebox, I believe. -- Stephen BEN: You know why I wanted to become a doctor?
