Why is it not possible /not available? Oyster is not an LU only card.


True, but that doesn't make it a NR card either.

There are a few journeys allowed to from LUL/NR interchange stations,
but Pre-Pay is not valid across the bulk of the Greater London NR
network.

This can get confusing (and annoying!) so I direct you to
"Inter-availability of tickets and Pre Pay on National Rail services"
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/common/downloads/2004-fares.pdf for the facts.


Cheers,
