My Anytime ODTC bought today (2 Nov) from Epsom (Southern) says:

And my weekly bought at Euston today (rather than MKC or Bletchley as
usual), says "Between MILTON KEYNES C & R1256 ZONES". *This is issued
by what the signs say is VT's brand new TIS...

(Shame the machines won't do MKC-R1256 at Euston, or I wouldn't have
had to queue...)

As an aside, does anyone know if the new ticket office at EUS is
completed - it looks decidedly unfinished and rough around the edges
to me, particularly the flooring.


Does the different printing correspond to different speed of
disappearance of ink? I am still finding that the "1 - 6" version
doesn't disappear, when they used to be blank in three or four weeks.
