Default Rail network in London to adopt zonal fares


wrote

this seems to mean big fare rises for some:
e.g. Surbiton to Waterloo cheap day return: now £4.20,
zone 1-6 rail only CDR: £5.70


But an Esher to Waterloo CDR is currently £5.70 (Esher being the next
station out, one stop outside the Zone 6 boundary) so it looks like a
very cunningly calculated price.

( Esher to Waterloo CDR+ Off Peak Day TC £8.70)

In fact all the '07 Rail only CDRs are priced at Single + £0.90 rather
than the usual +£0.60 or less.
