But capping is valid everywhere that PAYG is accepted, which includes

But you are perfectly entitled to use the cap to get to TTK. What you
can't do is use it to get a discount on the long distance fare, which
is what not getting off the train amounts to.


I was merely replying to Mr. Anderson's suggestion that capping is a
special offer for TfL services. In fact, capping is available
everywhere that PAYG is offered, TfL and non-TfL alike, as long as the
entire trip is available on PAYG.


It is. But i don't see how that's incompatible with it being a special
offer!
