So maybe as we speak, they are tweaking the NR TVM software to

were retrofitteed with Oyster facilities in pretty short order when
they went over to TfL...

Maybe everyone should wait and see before assuming the worst...

I suppose an acid test would be the newest LOROL stations between New
Cross and West Croydon recently handed over from Southern.

Not necessarily, because they are still using SN's existing equipment
AFAICS. Their LO stuff hasn't really got to be ready until next May or so...

I think the early handover was simply to avoid upheaval 6 months into the
new SN contract, not much evidence of any change on the ground yet, except
for blanking out SN logos.
