Note that this list is from the National Fares Manual and appears to only
give fares starting from National Rail stations. I am sure that the fares
are available in reverse, they are just not relevant for the purposes of the
Fares Manual.



It does seem to include a couple of fares in both directions (e.g.
Balham - Clapham North, Finsbury Park - Seven Sisters), but in the
main it is just fares originating from NR interchange points. I would
hope that LU have a fares chart listing the full range of sub-standard
fares, even if it isn't on the website.


Fares from Gloucester Road to Holland Park and Fulham Broadway are both
charged as a short hop (as confirmed by making a Prepay journey or
checking the charts on the wall at the stations), but don't appear to be
listed.
