 Passengers need not touch off when alighting a tram unless they're in zone 2

Prior to the introduction of Myki a separate fare and ticketing system existed for V/Line (country) services.However, since April 2006 holders of V/Line tickets to Melbourne have had access to both Zone 1 and 2 without needing to purchase another ticket.V/Line tickets to Zone 2 stations are valid for Zone 2 only.
