Travelcards are valid on that route and Travelcards are sold by lots of train companies and TfL. Thameslink can't prevent those people with Travelcards from travelling on its trains even if it wanted to. -- Dave Exactly. The same perhaps applies to a fair number of single and return journeys within Thameslink's operating area, eg a single Kentish Town to London Bridge might be sold at Kentish Town LU station, but be valid on Thameslink services too.

Although it's way quicker to do it on the Jubilee, all other things being equal. -- "The road to Paradise is through Intercourse."

In fact, to add to the above - I have a feeling that for the section between Kentish Town and London Bridge/Elephant & Castle/Moorgate, LU fares might apply anyway. I've always assumed that's the reason why railcard discounts don't apply for journeys wholly within that section. -- Dave |
