The Most Out of Station Interchanges In One Journey

An OSI is an 'Out of Station Interchange' on the TfL Network where you can leave one station ... and walk to another but it charges as you as a continuation, rather than two separate fares.
There are only certain places on the system where you can do this, and I thought I'd try a journey that included as many as possible ... and explain how they worked as I went.
Can I get from Harrow & Wealdstone to Barking by a very convoluted route and only pay for one fare?
Oyster Rail website: www.oyster-rail.org.uk/
And the complete list of all OSI's: www.oyster-rail.org.uk/osi-list/
TfL Maximum Journey Times: tfl.gov.uk/fares/how-to-pay-a...

[@geofftech2]

So two things ... 1) if after Archway, i'd have stopped it would have cost me £1.50 (reduced to £1.00 - see below) and then WAITED for over 20 minutes so that the OSI *didn't* happen at Upper Holloway, it would have started a second £1.50 (£1.00) journey to take me to Barking - in effect 'splitting' the one journey over two legs. 2) i have a Gold Card Railcard which gives me 1/3 off off-peak Oyster journies, so what is normally £1.50 gets reduced to £1.00 - and that's the same reason why the incomplete journey charge of normally £5.60 gets reduced down to £3.70.

I got stung by the 2 uncompleted journeys when I had to go the long way round once when it's disrupted, whats worse is that 2 incomplete costs more than a day travel card which it would have capped at in the zones I used

I bet you get even more time for contactless Reading to Gatwick Airport - not that anyone would do that via London, when there's direct trains via Guildford

[@miles_thomas]

@@bjornhattan6026 In theory they (TfL/GWR/GTR) could set up the contactless technology to handle that case (charging circa £20 for a direct single ticket in peak vs. £40+ via central London), but the guards would need to be equipped with an contactless reader to validate that you touched in at Reading/Gatwick. So probably not going to happen, use your contactless card to buy a paper ticket instead

[@TheMan377-vr2mx]

only 2 trains if you get overground then southern to east croydon, tap out then tap in again (saves you money) then get a thameslink/southern to gatwick airport which is probably around £3.50 i believe

Good to see that the gates open now with an exceeded maximum journey time. Back when I had one, many years ago when ticket offices were still staffed, the gates didn't open, and I got a "Seek Assistance" even though there were enough funds on my Oyster card to cover two maximum fares. It took a while to get that sorted out while the agent grilled me about what route I took and why it took so long.

[@ianhenderson4560]

Surely, the way to join the most OSIs together is to do exactly what Geoff did, *but* start back at Watford Junction and continue beyond Barking to Grays - the extra zones transitted will "buy" more time on the maximum journey time without needing any more touch in/outs?

[@joermnyc]

We have “out of system transfers” between subway stations here, there used to be more, but they’ve cut them back to just one, between Lexington Ave/59th Street on the 4-5-6-N-R-W and Lexington Avenue 63rd Street on the F-Q since. Plus you can have a free transfer on your Metrocard for approximately 2 hours between a bus or a subway, but if you take the Staten Island Railroad (which is free to enter at any station aside from St George Ferry Terminal) all the way to the ferry and exit through the turnstiles (only station in the city with pay to exit) it gives you 2 free transfers. The ferry is also free, so technically it’s 3 free transfers. (Doesn’t stop people from getting out at the stop before the ferry and walking 1/2 mile to not pay at all.)

[@hihi217]

There are more out of system transfers but there is only one permanent one between Lexington Avenue stations. I think some stations near the L line because of the Canarsie tunnel shutdown. There's also another one near the southern tip of Brooklyn, between 86th Street (N) and Avenue X (F) until spring 2020 because the MTA is doing work to protect Coney Island Yard from flooding, so N trains terminate at 86th Street.

[@SEFR7337]

The Staten Island Railway now has TWO paid stations, St. George and Tomkinsville, the two closest to the ferry. You can no longer take the SIR almost to St. George, get off at Tomkinsville and walk to the ferry terminal, never paying a fare. You need your Metro Card to get in AND OUT of both St. George and Tomkinsville. As said above, all other subway stations only require you to swipe in, never to swipe out. About 80% of SIR riders are going to or from the ferry. So the MTA gets fares out of most riders, even if all the other SIR stations have no turnstiles or fare collection system. But at least you get a free transfer to or from a subway or bus in Manhattan and another free transfer to or from a S.I. bus.

Idly watching yesterday's quaint programme on C4 about railways in Scotland..... oh, hello Geoff!

[@paulkennedy8701]

11:55 There's something wrong with that table of time limits, and it seems to have misled Geoff. Geoff says it gives more time on Friday evenings, because column 2 says "after 19.00 Friday". However, it must really mean "Monday to Friday after 19.00", which it also says (with an erroneous comma). It's the rest of Monday to Friday, not included in column 1 "Monday to Friday 04.30 - 19.00".

[@JivanPal]

It's a typo that is still there today. Table 1 (Travelling within Zones 1-4) correctly reads "Monday to Friday, after 19:00 & all day Saturday", whereas Table 2 (Travelling across all zones) reads "Monday to Friday, after 19:00 _Friday_ and all day Saturday". The latter adds "Friday" for no discernible reason. I agree that the comma is confusingly placed, and that they ought to read "Mon-Fri after 19:00, and all day Sat". The reason for stipulating "after 19:00" rather than e.g. "at all other times" is that e.g. "Monday after 19:00" actually means "Monday 19:00 - Tuesday 04:30"; TfL uses 04:30 as the bound between days for travel purposes, since many people often make return journeys after midnight (see Night Tube [1]). So column 2 covers these "19:00 - 04:30 next day" time periods for Monday-Thursday, as well as Friday 19:00 - Sunday 04:30; and then column 3 ("Sunday") covers Sunday 04:30 - Monday 04:30.

Here in Melbourne, Australia, we have a myki system where you put top up money on these special cards and tap on and off the platform. How much money it deducts depends on what zone your taking.

(i.e. suburban trains and go N, W, S, E, SW, SW, NE, SE) the only paper ticketing system is the country trains heading to Albury, Shepparton, Geelong and so forth.

Oh I love OSI's, discovered them by accident, you have already mentioned the part that you get 20mins to between OSI to continue the journey, as to the dots walking routes between stations, initially they where stations 'five' minutes walk apart (it used to annoy me that Hanger Lane and Park Royal where just outside this window at a roughly 'seven' minute walk but still an OSI), TFL have since increased the dots to signify a 5-10 minute walk between stations hence why more have appeared. The others featured in the video are probably just outside this window. I'm curious to know if talking a bus journey between OSI's would break a journey or would the OSI still stand?

In Munich, we have no barriers at stations, just time limits on the tickets. Short hop = 1 hr; 4 zones (i.e. max) = 4 hours. The only rule is that you have to keep going in one direction. Therefore you could buy a ticket in the city centre, leave the ststion and walk all the way to the airport station (4 zones). This would take about four hours, so you see the system works.

An OSI which has never happened is between Whitechapel and Bethnal Green NR which are a short walk. My guess is they haven't down it to protect revenue on Southern with passengers coming from South to NE London without going into Zone 1. (The reason behind Shoreditch High Street being in Z1).

I think it was the daily cap because of time, not of distance, since I technically stayed in zone 1. I got on at Covent Gardens, took pictures at Baker St, got quite confused by trying to change branches at Camden Town (and 😱 the screeching is so loud in those curves), all this to pass by, of course, Mornington Crescent 😜, and finally exiting at Goodge St. (I only alighted at Mornington, I didn’t go out).
