    The map used is soo old. The East London Line closed as part of the underground in 2007. You also mention Waterloo is served by three lines, it is actually 4 lines, Bakerloo, Northern, Jubilee and Waterloo & City.

    Elizabeth Line - is not an underground line but is part of the Network - can save huge amounts of time. Plus air conditioning on the Tain and in the stations.

    Kinda confusing using a really old map that still mentions the east London line and doesn’t include the Elizabeth line and overground. The zones are incorrect too

      Unless you have a reason to use it, such as a discount (which young travellers can have on a Visitor's Oyster). I use mine due to the Railcard discount. It's also useful for anyone who doesn't have a contactless card to use

    I think that an older map was used because it's clearer and any visitor won't be using this very video but a map app or paper one.
    An example being the plethora of accessibility icons now. Here 3:44 there's just the one.

      Yes. And most network rail services can be paid for with oyster if you are within the tfl fare zones but I’d look it up because I’m not 100% sure

  • @slinkysmom5674

    I know it’s basic but I wish just one how to video would not go so fast and skip over the signage in the station. Explain a sign for a train that may have 2-4 different destinations. Which train do you get on? There are many videos telling people about an app but it helps to know the basics too.

      In order to answer your question, more information is necessary.
      You'll find it easy to go on to the tube's website:
      TfL gov.uk
      where you can put in which zone your accommodation is in, which one you need to travel to, how many adults and children... all sorts of details if you want... and then it will show you various ticketing options.

    • @GeekyScot
      @GeekyScot Pƙed 9 měsĂ­ci +2

      All of them are included in the standard fare system, although if you take the Elizabeth to Heathrow you’ll get charged an airport premium which you don’t pay if you take the Tube there. Your oyster will also work on things like boats and the cable car.

      It looks like an old map, the East London Line is shown as an underground line too, so likely pre-2007
