In some case this may involve crossing the street to a station

with a
different name or to a different part of the same rail or

underground
station but in all such cases Oyster must recognise that a jouney

is
not ending but continuing Thus for this purpose the Euston -

Kings
Cross - St Pancras interchange consists of three rail stations and
three underground stations (because of Euston Square) and the
Victoria interchange is two barriered rail stations - Victoria
(Southern) & Victoria (SouthEastern) plus an underground station..


I wouldn't use the Euston/KX example as there are other

complications,
and the three ticket halls at KX doesn't help either. The Victoria
example is sufficient.


Er.. I wouldn't use Euston/KX as an example as it doesn't seem to be

an
OSI...


According to the list that Peter Smyth posted on 09 Dec '09.

Euston (NR) - King's Cross (NR) (40)
Euston (NR) - St Pancras International (NR) (30)
But not
King's Cross St. Pancras Tube (LU)

Which complication /is/ a good reason for not using it as an example.
