Title: Changing onto London Underground at Richmond Post by: ellendune on April 21, 2014, 13:06:12 If changing onto London Underground (or Overground for that matter) at Richmond and are arriving on a SWT ticket and are proposing to use Oyster for LUL do you have to go out of the barriers and come back in to tap in? There are only pink route validators on the platforms?
Title: Re: Changing onto London Underground at Richmond Post by: Brucey on April 21, 2014, 16:25:04 Although you are told not to, touching an unvalidated Oyster card onto a pink route validator will actually start a journey. You can check it has done this as "ENTER ^balance" will be displayed rather than "ENTER INTERCHANGE".
