    The map shows Elstree and Borehamwood are included in the 60+ scheme, so my St Alban ticket will cost £6.30 return with Senior Railcard.

    I will report back on the tfl app, and how useful it is soon.

    Thanks excluding Express trains make sense.

    There’s a map of the 60+ permitted routes on the website. https://tfl.gov.uk/fares/free-and-discounted-travel/60-plus-oyster-photocard?intcmp=54724

    Anyone who wants to support this benefit needs to contact the mayor and their MP. Looks like it won’t be called 60+ for much longer.

    Hi Mike, I’ll keep these emails on my phone so I can consider them.

    The senior railcard is a good idea for longer journeys, so once I’m 60 in a few weeks, I’ll apply for it and add it to my standard Oyster card.

    You don’t mention adding the 60+ to the standard Oyster card, is it possible?

    Getting out at East Croydon with bags is a faff, and as I can buy an electronic (more expensive) ticket for the extension I will use that. I can convert it into a paper ticket at my origin station Bromley south. Or I’ll get a bus to East Croydon.

    Are there any other restrictions on using 60+ such as the non-stop BMS – VIC? I vaguely recall that high speed trains are excluded.
