Will Travelcard Zone 6 ever expand to include Dartford stattion?
And lo, Graham Murray spake unto
us all anouncing In uk.railway, (PRAR) writes: Why not just have zone 7? You could put all the tube ABCD zones into it, move the stations that are actually outside Z6 into it and fix a few other anomalies. As well as making a good excuse for increasing the price of an all-zone travelcard. Yep, you'd not be able to get the Z1-6 daily just the Z1-7. You may need to keep the Z1-4 (it's basically an all zone bus pass with a bit of rail validity) and the Z1-2). The Z2-7 would replace the Z2-6 with comensurate price rise. Does the travelcard revenue cover it's costs or is it supported through national (SRA) and local (TFL) government subsidy? If it's supported then some input from the other local authorities will be required (which I can't see them stumping up voluntarily), but if it's the reverse then why not. I'd try to include Caterham, Tattenham Corner, Epsom Downs, Watford, St Albans, Dartford, Staines, Chafford Hundred and Cheshunt in zone 7 for starters. Windsor, Woking, Slough, etc may be a bit too far though. PRAR -- http://www.i.am/prar/ As long as people will accept crap, it will be financially profitable to dispense it.
