When is a travelcard not a travelcard?
wrote in message ... In article , (Paul Scott) wrote: wrote in message ... Isn't Watford Junction outside Zone 9? I thought it comprised just Chesham and Amersham. Correct, nearly. Watford Junction is just outside Zone 8, because in that area there is no Zone 9. So the OP's ticket was not valid for a journey to Watford Junction then? AIUI from many previous discussions, you can apparently buy a normal outboundary travelcard from Watford Junction TO zones 1-6, (not sure on zones 1-9), but the leg from Watford Junction to 'the zones', although short, is just like the leg from say Cambridge to the zones. So with an out boundary travelcard from WJ you'd have your normal one jouney in and one return, and if you started from within the zones with a normal Z1-6 travelcard you'd need an extension from BZ6 to WJ. No idea if there even is such a thing as an extension from BZ8 - Watford Junction though.... By the way - for those still wondering, have a look at the text in the orange box next to WJ on the standard tube map - you can see why people might expect it to be in Zone 9 though... http://www.tfl.gov.uk/assets/downloa...d-tube-map.pdf Paul S |
