YEah, the only two closed platforms are Stratford and Bank iirc

You need to already have touched in, or come in via National Rail links to get to those DLR platforms
2008-08-04 21752, 2008
Muz
Anywhere else thoguh you can just walk on or off and get away with it, as it's rare to find a ticket inspector on the DLR and they're fully automated with no staff driving it or anything

in munich the underground is open, no gates. you just are asked to stamp your ticket at the entrance.
2008-08-04 21700, 2008

Muz: the gates in .nl are considerably higher.
2008-08-04 21718, 2008
Muz
warp, the people in .NL are considerably taller ;) One of the tallest nations on average :P
A minor gripe about these p[ayment systems are that they're limited to small metros/regions. I can understand not being able to pay for say national rail trains, but it's a pain in the arse to not be able to get a bus in any county and payusing the same card heh

same with fylker here
2008-08-04 21744, 2008

Muz: the intent of the dutch card was to use it for all of .nl
2008-08-04 21755, 2008

the thing only works in oslo, go out of oslo and you need a differnt system
2008-08-04 21724, 2008

Muz: but with mifare security being such an issue, the implementation is greatly delayed.
2008-08-04 21729, 2008

Oyster Cards only works in London and links to/from London, understandable as it's ran by TfL (Transport for London)

I don't really see as such a problem. If I have to travel somewhere else, I have this thing called "credit card". Works everywhere.
2008-08-04 21750, 2008

the money issue should be much clearer by the end of august, i'm waiting for monthly tax returns to be arranged because of my new house, etc..
2008-08-04 21759, 2008

also because i gave up on twilight princess and am now playing master quest

Muz: the busses too and fro the airport lets you use credit cards
2008-08-04 21756, 2008
srotta
Muz: Yeah, but that's the problem of buses, I don't really see the point in creating another card that's just used for paying travle fares.
2008-08-04 21701, 2008

@andmost stores have credit cards herew
2008-08-04 21720, 2008

srotta: i like the seperate systems. I use the public transport card a lot more, so it not always lives in my wallet. it's quite ok for that to get lost or stolen...
2008-08-04 21741, 2008

(well, when i was still using it. i switched back to the old ticket system for the dutch metro now :)

2008-08-04 21705, 2008
warp
CatCat: it's a "card with strips", each strip is 1 zone -- you stamp the amount of zones you want to travel (+1 strip base fare).
2008-08-04 21713, 2008

jaha
2008-08-04 21722, 2008

and zwartrijden?
2008-08-04 21725, 2008
