Interesting, looking at the fares from stations such as West Brompton. West Brompton - South Kensingtonis a Z1&2 journey, but is only charged as a Z1 single - £1.50 (at all times). However West Brompton - Sloane Square is also a Z1&2 journey but is charged as the Z1&2 single - £2 (peak). Presumably this is an example of the 'short journey' fares (or whatever they are called) for stations near the Z1 boundary. Nicholas Most interesting. I was under the impression that 'short journey' fares were a thing of the past, and wasn't aware that 'short journey' fares were ever implemented on Oyster PAYG. I'm not convinced that this isn't just a mistake in the database - but I'm most willing to be proven wrong on that! |
