I recall as a 11 year old in 1959 a weekend holiday from Liverpool up
north
(where I was brought up) to London and my first ride on the London
Underground at Queensway Station using Tube Rover Tickets.

the terminus, such as Epping as I did on my Tube Rover ticket (not
allowed past Debden)

I don't know where you get that from.

Well I still stand by my thoughts on that Bill. I feel sure they were not
allowed to be used east of Debden and THAT would have included the infamous
Epping-Ongar shuttle at the time.


My favourite form of Saturday entertainment in the late 60's was to get
a Twin Rover and ride all over the system - and I definitely went to
Ongar, as I was also obsessed by the Paul Brickhill school of war memoir
writing at the time and wanted to see North Weald station, as featured
in Al Deere's story about getting shot down over Kent and getting back
to his base (at North Weald) by tube...
