Paddington to Hayes & Harlington is already free at any time. Which means that the only change is that the Hayes & Harlington to West Drayton section will be available at any time rather than restricted to after 09:30 weekdays. Or are you suggesting that the passes will be usable beyond the current boundary? -- Roger |

They are usable to Shenfield (on TfL trains) so why not to Reading? https://www.nationalrail.co.uk/stati...reedom_pass_ma p.pdf -- Roland Perry |

AIUI from discussions in various places on FB; while Oyster PAYG will only be available to West Drayton, Freedom Passes will be valid to Reading on TfL trains only. Anna Noyd-Dryver |
