Colin Rosenstiel writes Again as mentioned elsewhere in the thread, the whole of the back of the ticket was a magnetic surface. However these tickets were much smaller than the current tube tickets. Same size as a 'proper' Edmondson ticket IIRC No, longer than an Edmondson, I'm sure. I have examples somewhere here. On thinner card, too. Somewhere I've got one that was issued by a pre-deployment demonstration system they installed at the Science Museum. I think Clive might have one of those, too. -- Roland Perry |

Think they're between 125% and 150% longer than a standard Edmondon, but the same width. ITYM between 25% and 50% _longer._ -- Colin Rosenstiel |

Sounds like the Crouzet tickets that are still used in Adelaide, except that those only have a narrow magnetic strip on the back. They are rather a bad design, as the magnetic strip is weak, and far too easily accidentally eresed! Did the London tickets have that problem? |
