I wonder why the money spent on this expansion was not used to provide
Oyster retail facilities at NR stations. Surely that would have been

to Oyster on NR throughout London?

The media briefing 'FAQs' suggests that Oyster PAYG top ups at least will be
available at 'most NR stations', presumably via modifications to the TVMs.

That's certainly what I would have expected to see in the absence of
Oyster availability at ticket offices.
