Why contactless payments can't be expanded to Tilbury Riverside station
Briefly

Although Tilbury Riverside station closed in 1992, it still has a parliamentary bus service between Tilbury Town and Riverside for ticket holders, requiring a paper ticket for travel.
Contactless payments will only be applicable for Tilbury Town. To access the bus service to Tilbury Riverside, passengers need a physical ticket that shows the destination.
Interestingly, many passengers use the 99 bus to Tilbury Riverside to experience the obscure rail service, often valuing a paper ticket as a memento.
The integration of contactless payments in public transport is still in progress, with certain services like the parliamentary bus yet to adopt this modern payment system.
