Has anyseen Barry Doe's articles in recent Rail magazine over the mix up over fares by Overground & LM▸ (London Midland - recent franchise)  to stations in Watford and Zones 7-9 plus the pay as go Oyster▸ (Smartcard system used by passengers on Transport for London services) cards farce!

Despite reading it carefully I am still confused as to what is the correct fare. The last time I travelled to Watford by train I used my Gold Card to purchase a discounted boundary Zone 6 to Watford and travelled from Ken Olympia. Seems that may or may not be possible anymore.
