So a surprise Shepherd's Bush opening on November 11th is definitely
off the cards.

Tube tickets and Travelcards surely aren't valid*, so that makes
sense. I'd be surprised if the Oyster fares are different to Zone A.

(* I've just noticed the entire Silverlink Metro network - minus north
of Hatch End and south of West Brompton - has been recently added to
the tube singles valid listing in the fares brochure)

Thanks for the link.

LO as in London Overground - shouldn't it be 'LOL' cos of the useless
platforms ...

There's been a huge amount of debate about TfL fares on the 'Overground' but
presumably as it is also still part of the national rail network as well,
unchanged [1]) rail fares seem to be available to/from the transferred
stations.

I guess the 'rail only zonal fares' as announced in the NR fare changes Jan
07 are still valid?

GOBLIN becomes the only line on a tube map not to be electrified.

Yes, I'd spotted that and was asking myself the same question!

Good to hear from you, Neil. Long time no see!

Willesden Junction looks a bit messy, the WLL needn't cross over the NLL
and then kind merge into it.

The label for 'Acton Central' is in the wrong place too

I wonder if the station names have been placed in the correct zone as well
as the station symbol. That could account for why 'Acton Central' is
"wrong".

I've an idea we've talked round this a bit in various poster's comments.
Perhaps it'll change in January with the next routine NR fares changes, and
so might the northern bit of the DC lines. It would make sense if 'LO' is
considered (as on NR's site) one of the TOCs and changes will affect NR
fares from stations outside the London fare zones (the ones TfL call the TfL
fare zones)...
