That's naughty - they're still valid on the 258.


AIUI, an outboundary ODTC loses its validity on return to the
originating station. So it might be inconvenient, but I don't think
it's strictly naughty.


I'm sure I've read something official about them still being valid on
TfL buses outside the zones, but can't find where now.

They're also valid for another journey from Watford Junction going back
the other way.

They most definitely are not.

WJ is like any other outside London station in that respect, a ODTC from
that type of station is valid for only one return train journey into London.
The fact that WJ is still inside the London bus area does not change that.
