It happens now with Liverpool Street - Walthamstow Central/Tottenham
Hale/Seven Sisters. It depends if they want to go for some quick-wins like
Victoria-Balham, Victoria-Bromley South or Victoria/London Bridge-East
Croydon. I find it hard to believe Ken would resist the PR opportunity to
go-live on the gated stations early. The press release says work will start
on them first. Will the technology be installed and then left idle while
the other stations have gates installed?


Southern will apparently be trialling PAYG soon for Victoria - Balham
journeys.


Any idea whether this will be using the TfL fare structure? (£2.50
daytime / £2.00 evening & weekend)
