The underground is shockingly expensive. It's £3 return for an off
peak Hammersmith-Ealing Broadway, 5.5 miles, 27p per mile.

For Ealing - Twyford with a YP railcard, it's £5.20 return, or
8p/mile. Even without a railcard it's 13p/mile, half the price of the
underground.

This is why we don't want zonal fares in South London! West Dulwich -
Victoria: L1.40 return (with a YP Railcard). Brixton - Victoria: L4.40
return.

On the other hand, it would be nice for Oyster to be supported
properly anywhere other than Tube stations and newsagents...
