all that long! So yes, those who specifically want a Day Travelcard

Is it possible to get Gold Card limited Oyster fare capping yet, or is
dead tree still cheaper than Oyster? I haven't asked around for some time..


Gold Card-discounted Oyster PAYG capping (i.e. the GC equivalent to
having a Railcard discount loaded on one's Oyster card) now exists -
it went live in January I think?

Anyhow, confirmation that it exists is on the TfL website he
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tickets/14414.aspx#tkt-tab-panel-9

I assume that if one has a Gold Card season loaded on Oyster it just
works. Though people I know who used to get inboundary Gold Cards
don't seem to do so any more.
