[1] I have no idea whether "NR lines" are differentiated for OEP
purposes in the same way that they will be differentiated in terms of
charging rates. Lines currently valid for PAYG stay on the TfL tariff
next year but the lines being added to the system (primarily but not
entirely south of the river) are on the NR tariff.

The rule will be:
If you are travelling outside the zones of your Travelcard(s) on a
National Rail train, you must load an OEP before boarding that train.


No, you only need an OEP if you are starting within the zones of your
Travelcard and then travelling outside your zones.

2)


Z2-6 Travelcard onOystercard
Elephant and Castle NR to Kentish Town
OEP set before entry
Mixed Travel Entry charge deducted on entry
balance adjusted on exit to reflect Z1 NR only extension fare (which
will be the same as the Z1 NR onlyOysterpay as you go fare)
OEP removed by exit touch


In this case you are touching in outside your zones, so an Entry charge
will be deducted whether you have an OEP or not.

correct - starting within zone - travelling beyond zone on NR train
