I'm a bit confused on the information received through the TfL
website: On the one side they state that the 7-Day Oyster Card can be
used on British Rail, provided you'll keep within the zones you've
paid for. "My" station would be Lewisham, zone 2, so this station
should be covered by my Travelcard which covers zone 1-2.


Britich who!? *There has not been a "British Rail" for more than a
decade.


The body who used that trading title was not abolished until after the
passing of the Transport Act 2000, so a bit under a decade.


Point taken, although the OP was discussing rail travel. I don't
there have been BR trains for over a decade. IIRC the residual body
dealt with non rail property issues, etc.
