Description: | The London County Council offered transfer fares over its interconnecting services. This meant that people could take the first car that came and then change, rather than having to wait for a direct service. This transfer system was developed extensively during the 1920s and even further when the Kingsway tram subway re-opened for double-deck cars in 1931. The workman's return fares were so extensive that an A and B ticket was necessary to accommodate all the stages and information. This example is a B ticket from 1947. It was for use on services 33 and 35. It has been punched for a return journey between Westminster and Archway. The conductors would have had to know all the fares and transfers to punch the tickets quickly and accurately. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Transport | Temporal: | 1947 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
