Oyster on National Rail - Variable Minimum Journey Times
"Barry Salter" wrote in message ... Hi folks, As has been reported in the past, the extension of Oyster PAYG to National Rail will see an end to the current fixed maximum journey time of 2.5 hours for certain journeys. Instead, a *variable* maximum will be applied when you touch out, based on the zones travelled through. It looks like I might have benefited from this last week. My journey was Brighton to Hanger Lane return, using my NR seson as far as CLJ, then Oyster PAYG via Shepherd's Bush. From CLJ: I touched in on platform 16 at 10:34. I touched out at SPB (NR) and almost then in on the Central line. I touched out at Hanger Lane at about 11:10. I then reversed the journey from Hanger Lane starting shortly after 13:00. At CLJ I arrived on platform 2, and I had had got most of the way along the footbridge when I realised I had forgotten to touch out. I went to platform 17 and touched out there at 13:59. The weird part is that the online journey history only shows the 10:34 entry at CLJ and the 13:59 exit at CLJ, total charge £1.80. I assume that if I had spent longer at Hanger Lane it would have got split into two journeys - but how long? D A Stocks |
