Would it be more correct to give Bakerloo Line for the all-stations silverlink metro service to Euston? --Concrete Cowboy 17:09, 26 May 2005 (UTC)

[edit] London Overground

The text claims that the station will be in Travelcard Zone A. To support this, a proposed 2010 map is given, which indicates that the station is in Zone A. This would also seem logical as Watford tube station is also in Zone A. For Oyster pay-as-you-go purposes this will be the case, however I was under the impression that Oyster travelcards wouldn't be accepted that far (i.e. Watford Junction would continue to be treated as a national rail station outside of London for travelcard purposes). I won't edit the text because while it's ambiguous it has some truth to it, but does anyone have a source clarifying the ticketing situation?

Apart from word of mouth (i.e. original research), this source seems to suggest that Oyster travelcards won't be accepted:

"Passengers will also be able to use Oyster pay-as-you-go", but helpfully ambiguous when it comes to travelcards. BeL1EveR 20:05, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
