Oyster PAYG Island Gardens via Bank to Liverpool Street

But if I continue to Canary Wharf I will pay less because it then charges a zone 3-2 only. Then one wonder how it would be possible to touch in on the tube network at T. Hale and out at Canary Wharf without going through zone 1... Okay, I can (and most times do) take the 'one' to Stratford and then DLR from there, PAYG is valid on that route too, but in that case I have found out that I have to validate at Stratford too because otherwise the DLR validator at CW tell me it is an entry when I exit there so I don't think that is the possible not-via-zone-1 route they are thinking about here. I assume you validate "in" at Tottenham Hale in your example? You then validate "in" again at Stratford for DLR and then "out" at Canary Wharf? I've not investigated the north side of Stratford Station - are there validators on or near the "one" platforms for trains to Tottenham Hale (and north thereof)? If so, a very interesting set of logic at work there. -- Paul C Admits to working for London Underground! |
