NR Tickets from LU touchscreen Ticket machines
I have noticed that you can purchase a ticket from my local LU station
in Zone 5 to Peterborough, a single is about £19.?? quid. What type of ticket is this? Is it printed on a NR ticket or an LU ticket? Also can it be used on FCC or NXEC? when will LU implement joint up thinking as it is such a paid buying my £4.80 t/c from the ticket office. |

It's printed on standard LU stock (though it says NOT UNDERGROUND or something similar). The gripper passed it without a second glance, and it worked the ticket barriers at both ends. I presume it's a hangover from NSE days (when the Multifare machines with the hundreds of buttons had a couple of columns, coloured purple IIRC, with certain popular NSE destinations on them). |

ISTR LU fare lists showing various "exotic" destinations long before NSE was invented. |
