The Most Out of Station Interchanges In One Journey 

@@gergestead5382 The Bank to Bank OSI is between Central/Northern/DLR and Waterloo&City gatelines (the notes give that explanation).

I got stung by the 2 uncompleted journeys when I had to go the long way round once when it's disrupted, whats worse is that 2 incomplete costs more than a day travel card which it would have capped at in the zones I used

can I just ask. When you leave each station do you check out your oyster card or just check in at the next station??

Please, don’t admit defeat on this one Geoff... regroup, replan, repeat. 🥰

geoff it should be oosi because it says out "off" station interchange

This actually had my laughing

I'm dead

😂😂😂

There should be special 'Geoff Marshall' criteria for OSIs that allows extra time and interchanges.

Geoff Marshall calls are probably part of the job description. They probably know his number from memory.

He's testing their IT systems for free!

The thing about Geoff is, he always walks between the interchanges!

Any long related travel enquiries they get now is probably known to them as ‘ doing a Geoff ‘. “ Mabel, I got someone on the phone, he’s doing a Geoff “ .

its thier worst nightmare.

I bet you get even more time for contactless Reading to Gatwick Airport - not that anyone would do that via London, when there's direct trains via Guildford

@@bjornhattan6026 In theory they (TfL/GWR/GTR) could set up the contactless technology to handle that case (charging circa £20 for a direct single ticket in peak vs. £40+ via central London), but the guards would need to be equipped with an contactless reader to validate that you touched in at Reading/Gatwick. So probably not going to happen, use your contactless card to buy a paper ticket instead

only 2 trains if you get overground then southern to east croydon, tap out then tap in again (saves you money) then get a thameslink/southern to gatwick airport which is probably around £3.50 i believe

Underrated

I did this myself once: 1. East Acton to Notting Hill Gate (central line) 2. Notting hill gate to Edgware road (circle line) 3. Edgware road to Baker st ( H&S line) 4. Baker st to Finchley road ( Met line) 5. Finchley road to Baker st(Jubilee) 6. Baker st to Oxford Circus (Bakerloo) 7. Oxford Circus to Green park (Victoria) 8. Green Park to South Ken (Piccadilly) 9. South Ken to Embankment (District) 10. Embankment to Waterloo (Northern) 11. Waterloo to Bank (W&C) 12. Bank to Shadwell (DLR) 13. Shadwell to Canada Water (Overground)

@@Ankursawant that's brilliant, would love to see that video

@@brumsgrub8633 I didn't do the video though, I just did the journey 2 years ago when I had just arrived to London for the first time.

@@Ankursawant wow thats impressive knowledge for your first time in London

What a brilliant thing to do in a new city. You probably became a true Londoner within weeks. Perhaps Geoff will make a video of your journey and credit you with its discovery?

A few years ago I had to phone them up because something went wrong when I was photographing various stations and so had made lots of journeys. The only comment was "busy day".

"Hi, my name's Geoff Marshall, and I..." "I understand completely, sir."

@@catfish552 Either that or "Oh, it's you again. What do you need _this_ time?"

@@andrew_ray 😂

"I was playing Mornington Crescent in real life..." 😈

I saw that and was like “wait, that’s illegal”, I would be surprised that such a move would be allowed if I didn’t have some knowledge on Oyster...

also at 7:00:7-03 i got the flashes of light in time with the beat as well ...

great editing!

How many people went back to 7:00 to see the editing masterclass?

And at 5:11 (listen from 5:07... bing bong!), and the dot matrix flashing at 11:30. Such fun! I look forward to the chart-topping Tube song and music video that this surely presages.

For some strange reason I'm hopelessly addicted to a very specific part of his content: The very, very, *very* early morning portions of his big challenge-run videos. I don't know why, but something about Geoff and his mates in a chipper frame of mind at 5:20AM just makes my heart take wing. I could watch an entire video of just him getting up crazy early and then starting something, over and over.

Barking mad

Beat me to the obvious joke

Barking, Upminster and Bow mate....

Barking up the wrong tree here?

I just wished the station got an upgrade though like it looks so poor

He should get a Sony if he wants reliable autofocus, or a newer Canon mirrorless

Not sure if sitting on trains for hours is entertaining

@@Mkbw50 Wrong group :)

@@DavidChapmanAZ group?

And for less than those calypso drinks that everyone buys in my class (£3)

There are more out of system transfers but there is only one permanent one between Lexington Avenue stations. I think some stations near the L line because of the Canarsie tunnel shutdown. There's also another one near the southern tip of Brooklyn, between 86th Street (N) and Avenue X (F) until spring 2020 because the MTA is doing work to protect Coney Island Yard from flooding, so N trains terminate at 86th Street.

The Staten Island Railway now has TWO paid stations, St. George and Tomkinsville, the two closest to the ferry. You can no longer take the SIR almost to St. George, get off at Tomkinsville and walk to the ferry terminal, never paying a fare. You need your Metro Card to get in AND OUT of both St. George and Tomkinsville. As said above, all other subway stations only require you to swipe in, never to swipe out. About 80% of SIR riders are going to or from the ferry. So the MTA gets fares out of most riders, even if all the other SIR stations have no turnstiles or fare collection system. But at least you get a free transfer to or from a subway or bus in Manhattan and another free transfer to or from a S.I. bus.

And heading for Barking too!!

It's a typo that is still there today. Table 1 (Travelling within Zones 1-4) correctly reads "Monday to Friday, after 19:00 & all day Saturday", whereas Table 2 (Travelling across all zones) reads "Monday to Friday, after 19:00 _Friday_ and all day Saturday". The latter adds "Friday" for no discernible reason. I agree that the comma is confusingly placed, and that they ought to read "Mon-Fri after 19:00, and all day Sat". The reason for stipulating "after 19:00" rather than e.g. "at all other times" is that e.g. "Monday after 19:00" actually means "Monday 19:00 - Tuesday 04:30"; TfL uses 04:30 as the bound between days for travel purposes, since many people often make return journeys after midnight (see Night Tube [1]). So column 2 covers these "19:00 - 04:30 next day" time periods for Monday-Thursday, as well as Friday 19:00 - Sunday 04:30; and then column 3 ("Sunday") covers Sunday 04:30 - Monday 04:30.

Merry Christmas! ;) x

what prog / link?

So it'll no longer be an OSI!

that is some expert-level Greggs, Dominc! excellent. i too have definetely sat down at Victoria for a coffee before now, and back into the gateline at about 19m 45s later ...

No OSI at Tottenham Hale is complete without a 19min trip to the artisanal boutiques of the Retail Park. There is also a Greggs.

The Glasgow Subway laughs at the sheer size of the tube trains! I think. I've never actually been to London

@@r.alexandercorbitt1554 Yes. I've been to Glasgow and the subway trains are laughably small. I can't even stand straight on them. I'm 1.81m by the way.

@@eastpavilion-er6081 The track gauge is actually narrower as well

I feel like the knotted tube video was pretty close to that
