I tried to buy a ticket from Edge of Zone 2 to Hitchin Kings Cross.
The guy replied they "don't sell them". Is he correct?


It depends what you need, if you want to extend from Zone 2 to Hitchin
then there should be an add on fare. If you already have Hitchin to
Zone 2 and need to go to Kings Cross there is no add on Fare, you just
buy a Z12 Travelcard or suitable single.

My use of prepositions is a clue as to which of these applies.
_From_ Zone 2 _to_ Hitchin suggests that I was travelling From zone 2 to
Hitchin rather than from Hitchin to Kings Cross.

Seriously, I already have a Zone1+2 Monthly travelcard on Oyster Card.
I wanted to extend this for a return to Hitchin and was suprised that the
ticket office seemed unable to sell this.
Might it be that they can't read the Oyster Card?
