Default TfL Journey Planner can't cope

From what I have seen the guys at TfL have done a fantastic job
updating all londoners with helpful travel information.


Is this the same TfL who told londonders that "all National Rail"
services would take Oyster PAYG, when people I know have had penalty
fares when they tried to do this for a fairly reasonable route?


They actually got issued Penalty Fares, yes? If so I'm surprised - I
didn't think any TOC would have the brass balls to do that on the
strike days given the information that came from TfL (yes, yes - it
increasingly looks like it's TfL who had the brass balls to interpret
the agreement in such a broad manner - but from the passenger's POV
that's largely irrelevant).

I trust they'll contest them - I can't really see a *single* PF issued
by TOCs in London (for London journeys) on Wednesday or Thursday
standing up (at least not if the person had an Oyster card).
