Do you regularly travel to/from one of Hertford North, Welwyn Garden City, Luton Airport Parkway, Epsom, Harpenden, St Albans, Radlett, Hatfield, Welham Green, Brookmans Park or Potters Bar? If your answer is yes, then rejoice! Oyster is coming.

After plenty of political pressure behind the scenes, both Oyster Card and Contactless will be in place at all of the above stations by early 2019. That means no more getting caught out with a surprise fine if you tapped in somewhere in London, without realising you couldn't tap out at the other end of your journey.
