If, however, you are on a National Rail outside London to Zone 1
(or other zones) ticket you won't be let back into the station.
BTDTGTTS.


Bank and Monument are now a permanent OSI so I would expect a
magnetic ticket to work properly now.


I'm sceptical. Victoria didn't work the other day, between Victoria
and District lines via the gate lines.

The tickets I mentioned seem to expect you to make just one tube
journey. Perhaps you can prove me wrong?


Is Victoria an OSI?

There's no need to go via the gateline. I've got a feeling that one
is positively discouraged from doing so, and it would be recorded as
exiting the system.


Ordinarily true, maybe, but the internal escalators were closed. We were
told an OSI was in place, to touch out and in again and we wouldn't be
over-charged.
