Paul Scott is correct - Heathrow Connect beyond H&H is not covered by
Oyster.

Having spent the morning flicking through the "official" media docs.
Things that caught my eye a

1) No mention of OEPs. At all. TfL have since told me they'll only
affect 0.04% of passengers which presumably is justification for their
low key coverage.

Yes but it will generate 100% of the bad publicity when people start
being penalty fared !!

Someone should point out that it may be 0.04% of journeys, but not
necessarily 0.04% of passengers. Everyone with a travelcard may
extend beyond their zones for 0.04% of their journeys or something,
but if they get screwed the first time they do, that's a lot of
"customers" who won't be very gruntled about Oyster.
