What about through fares to Underground zones? For example,

Not sold as that AIUI. Cambridge to Zones 1 & 2 Saver Return:

Interesting. I thought that at least prior to the 2006 fares
revision, you didn't get the Railcard discount on the U12 part of the
fare. (The through fare would have been calculated as the sum of a
Cambridge to Finsbury Park Saver Return plus two Z12 Tube fares. Now,
it's done differently, though I'm not sure how.)

Even though most Cambridge-London services don't stop at Finsbury Park?

I'd never come across any Network Card discount that wasn't a straight
34% until 'one's special Cambridge-London fares.
