London Underground ticket offices that are still open.

[swt class 450]

I was just looking in the Chiltern Railways timetable book and i noticed that it says that these stations have ticket offices.

Amersham
Chalfont & Latiner
Chorleywood
Harrow On The Hill
Rickmansworth
South Ruislip
West Ruislip

All of them seem to just be open for a few hours in the early morning.

So are these actually London Underground ticket offices that are still open? Or are they National Rail ticket offices provided by Chiltern Railways? I thought that all London Underground ticket offices had closed. Ive never been to these stations early in the morning so i havent ever seen them open.

None of those stations have ticket offices provided either by LUL or Chiltern.

Looks like no-one told Chiltern...

The Chiltern Railways information must just be incorrect. I am surprised that they havent updated their website or timetable booklets. This is the booklet - https://www.chilternrailways.co.uk/...les/timetables/Timetable_December_11_2016.pdf - where i found the information in.

deff all closed, if they were open myself and many others would have the option to pay for our journeys.

The underground section of it still has a ticket office and it is quite seperate from the heathrow express section

The station is managed and staffed by Heathrow Express, aside from a Supervisor employed by LUL who is not usually customer facing. The ticket office at T5 is not a LU ticket office.

Yes I know that but it is still an ticket office that exclusively serves the London Underground section of the station. If the question asked which ticket offices were operated by London Underground you would have a point but it didn't.

It's not a London Underground ticket office. Because of this it cannot perform all of the functions a London Underground ticket office could have done. Therefore Mojo does have a point.

Can this ticket office even sell London Underground tickets (or only Heathrow Connect and Heathrow Express tickets)?

Like what functions can it not perform?

It has a oyster device outside the office and a window for serving people behind the lu gateline so I guess it does sell underground tickets.

As a start, service LUL POMs, (note jam etc).

Are there any LUL POMS at heathrow terminal 5?

 

[infobleep]

What are LULs and POMs?

 

[bluegoblin7]

LUL = London Underground Limited
POM = Passenger Operated Machine, LU's name for TVMs
