Hello All! I need you advice about use of travel cards. I'm starting a job in Staines and will have to commute daily between Wandsworth Common and Staines. I was already advised to buy travel card between Staines and Zones 2-6 which I plan to do but the question is: I may sometimes go after work to Central London. How to do this? Train from Staines goes to Waterloo which would be useful for me but it's in Zone 1 so what should I do - do I have to buy separate ticket for Staines- Waterloo, or get off in Clapham Junction and have a ticket Zone 2 to 1 from there (this option sound like a waste of time really)? Do I have any other options?
And also, I saw SWR has this Smart cards now. Will it be useful for me or should I rather have paper travelcard? Wandsworth Common has no barriers to put paper ticket in, only Oyster readers so I'm not sure how it works.
So many questions... I would appreciate your help!
