Default Announcement re. Oyster on London overland rail

In message , at 11:20:58 on
Mon, 23 Nov 2009, Paul Scott remarked:
So not the same fare as you would have paid travelling entirely on the
UndergrounD? eg A different fare to get to Richmond, depending on the
train you caught.


Yes - but there have been a number of previous uk.t.l threads on the matter,
so I won't add to that.

How will the daily capping work, in that case.


Same as now, travel mode will not matter, except the Oyster PAYG daily caps
are rising by 50p to be the same as the equivalent paper travelcard.
According to the TfL fares announcement this is because Oyster no longer has
the disadvantage of limited NR coverage.


But at least that means no individual NR fare can exceed the relevant
daily cap.
