Default Stratford Jubilee Line Oyster question

I seem to remember that you go through gates when you exit the Jubilee
Line at Stratford. Does that mean that if you continue on the Central
Line that this is a new fare on Oyster and can you go from Stratford to
Liverpool St on the mainline using Oyster.
ie will North Greenwich to Liverpool St via Stratford be one or two
journies or should I go via London Bridge and Bank.


The jubilee line gate is set for interchange therefore it does not set a
new journey if you are already "in" the system as per your example.

Yes you can use the main line between Stratford and Liverpool St.

I see no reason why the journey you describe should not work as one full
journey with the Z13 Oyster fare being deducted on exit at Liverpool St.


It's also worth noting that there are Oyster validators on the Central
Line platforms at Stratford (or at least there were last time I went
through), so you might want to touch in there as well, just to be on the
safe side.
