If they were allowed to do that, perhaps other national rail companies would be more in favour of Oyster [...] It would also be the end of interavailable ticketing, which wouldn't be a good thing for the passenger. Well, not entirely. Some other railway systems seem to manage to define a base tariff (e.g for a season ticket), which can also be used on premium trains by purchasing a one-off supplement per use. I'm not sure how you'd tell an Oyster reader what your wishes were in this regard, though. I wonder if this went through and Chiltern reducing their serving of TFL LU stations if there would still be priority given to Chiltern trains on the track, if TFL LU want to make things difficult they can and delay chiltern affecting their performance ratings.
