I got an idea. Let's just turn the entire network, from Penzance to
Wick, orange.

I note a bunch of arrows at the ends of the various lines, so based on
the text that says they want to take over the various franchises, I
assume we'd have TfL at least as far as Kings Lynn. It would certainly
be handy to pay for my jaunts between Cambridge and Ely with my senior
Oyster.

Not flipping likely! You can go just beyond the edge of Greater London to a
suitable terminal like Welwyn Garden City maybe but no further without
democratic control from the people outside London.
