What's U12?

Underground zones 1&2 - i.e. a destination LU station anywhere within
those zones (which are the two most central zones). The destination
actually appears as "Zone U12" on rail tickets (could also just be
"Zone U1", "Zone U1234", "Zone U1256" etc).


It appears as "U12* LONDN" on the ticket itself, and "ZONE U12* LONDN"
on the sleeper reservation.
