Fun and games at the Ticket Office

Had a quick re-look at the thread.

The AFM's mentioned are at a fairly advanced stage and an are being installed at many locations - just last night 2 were being fitted at the main booking hall at Kings Cross.

About 7 machines per week are being installed network wide, so the full program will take until approx Easter 2008 to finish.

Nothing certain about the 2008 fares revision, but the widely mooted £5 ticket looks like being a possibility.

However, we do seem to be having a fairly active mayoral election on our hands, so the ticket office opening times, possibly fares etc, may be politically "changed" until after an election. No bad publicity pre-election for either candidate.

I have no idea about Oyster pay as you go on the no the Overground network, however I wouldn't be surprised if the changes won't come until the Jan fares revision. My thinking behind this is some fares will change when PAYG is accepted e.g. Stratford - Richmond. You can only change fares at certain times of the year.
