Have Metroline got the authority to do so anyway ? I would have

There may be a standing arrangement with TfL. There seems to be for
passing passengers on the Victoria Line at the mere whiff of
disruption on the MK-East Croydon via Kenny O service.

I would indeed assume it would have to go via TfL as they have revenue
risk.
