Default New Deal for Oyster?!

http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/press-cent...t.asp?prID=776

Douglas Alexander (the new transport secretary) and Ken have announced
that Oyster equipment is to be rolled out to all Greater London National
Rail stations starting this year. TfL will pay for the equipment
(including the readers and the back-office equipment) which will be
installed by the TOCs.

Meanwhile, the DfT will fund a £19m upgrade of TfL's Oyster readers to
accept ITSO-standard smartcards too.

The press release says that PAYG could be available at National Rail
stations during 2008.
