Default Tube fare prices

Therefore if TfL want to apply their fares to SRA services, they have to
"pay the difference" - which can be very expensive,


However for the Ealing Broadway - Paddington fare TfL pricing is more
expensive for a return than rail pricing.

Oyster 2 x £2.30 = £4.60
NR standard day return = £4.20

And off-peak NR comes down to £2.70 whereas the Oyster price only falls at
weekends and even then to only £3.60.

Paper tickets at TfL prices would be £5 at all times.

There is a good reason why people don't want TfL to price everything within
London.
