Hi Janet,
Sorry for the delay. Accompanied children under 11 do travel free between Watford Junction and Euston, as per this map: https://content.tfl.gov.uk/free-travel-areas-without-oyster-adult-accompanying-map.pdf.
The adults can use either Oyster or contactless. No need to book tickets in advance.
Hi Janet,
I can confirm that accompanied children under 11 go free (we did the same journey with two under 11) and that you can pay with Oyster or contactless (we used both, as I had contactless on my phone and my wife had Oyster).
Regarding the cost, I can only say that a return peak-time trip from Euston to Watford, plus a couple of trips on the Overground, cost £15.70. Don’t ask me how that works because I never quite grasped the fare system.
cheers
Julio
Hi there, I have got a simillar problem; we are staying in Watford, the best way for us to get to the city is to use the rail from Watford Junction to London Euston (20min one). As far as I am concerned, this journey can be paid using contactless pay as you go but due to the fact we will need to use this connection a few times, my question is, which cap applies for the journey from Watford Junction to London Euston? Watford Junction is out of the fare zones, so which cap covers it? If I travel to Euston and then within zone 1 and 2, would the same cap cover both travels to Watford Junction and travelling within the zones?
From Mike’s post on the previous page, the following is currently true of the cap for travel in the zones between Watford Junction and zone 1 but this will likely change next month when the annual fare increases are applied:
“The Anytime cap is £28.60 and the off-peak cap (after 0930 weekdays) is £21.30.“
