I guessed I could certainly get off at Oxford Circus as that's my normal
route between Waterloo and KX.


You can of course get off a tube train and change to another line no
problem - the issue I was raising was whether one could get off early and
then exit the station (the NR website clearly says that's legit, whilst
others have questioned whether that advice is correct - but in a sense
that debate doesn't matter as in effect the very public statement on the
NR website trumps any rules in hidden rulebooks that there may be on this
matter!).


The practical problem people have reported here and in uk.r is that at
places like Oxford circus the gates don't automatically let them out as they
aren't programmed to allow it, and the staff aren't up to speed either so
they then have an argument at the manual gate...
