Is that true? I would have thought that they were entitled to use
reasonable force to eject an unauthorised person from private property,
like bouncers in clubs or pubs.

I would take it as assault. Do you know if the law exists for an RPI to
forcibly remove someone from LUL property?

I think they have no such power, assuming it's the same on National Rail.
When a fare dodger was playing dead the other day on a train I was on the
Inspector couldn't touch him to try and wake him up and eventually called
an ambulance for a special stop at Stevenage in case he really was dead.
The police took him away.
