Ive been buying daily tickets and using oyster payg f

Richmond and London are different destination zones I know - but is
there some weekly ticket I could buy


Avoiding the queue has an easy answer, buy the tickets one or two
nights before either at the station where you start your homeward
jouney or when you reach Effingham Junction.

Otherwise, assuming you are travelling before 09:30 and only four times
a week, I think you can't improve matters without considerable extra
cost. Price a weekly (or four peak day travelcards) from Effingham
Junction to zones 1-6 (which would include your buses of course).


Thanks for your reply - I looked into it. Its pretty grim reading and
would cost me over double and take longer to tube from Wimbledon rather
than SWT from CLJ to RMD so its not worth it...

Guess I'll do the ticket on the way home thing.

Its a shame you cant do this from the SWT ticket machines at Effingham
Junction which is of course closed in the evening - but you can buy
tickets for tomorrow from the Southern ticket machines at Leatherhead
but you cant change the originating station..

Another item for the list of TOC unexplainable differences over things
that should be the same...
