How London Got Its Travelcard Zones

There are 9 Fares Zones when travelling around London on Tube, Train and Bus, but how did they all come about? It all started back with the first Travelcard in 1981 ...

Here's a video I've been meaning to do for ages, I thought it was about time to see how London's Travelcard Zones had involved over time so here's the condensed history in a concise 5 minute video!

nb. There was also a product known as the 'LT Card' which London Transport brough in during the 1990's and was a Tube + Bus only ticket! It didn't effect the number of zones though.

Many thanks to Keith R, Mike W and Dave Green for additional research and images.
