Default Rail network in London to adopt zonal fares

In article , Arthur Figgis
] writes
"There are over 330 rail stations within the Travelcard zones, and at
present each of 97,300 different station-to-station combinations has
its own set of fares."

Does this add up?

330 stations can come in 54285 combinations, or 108570 permuations
(which may be more appropriate as the fares may not be the same in
both directions(?)) .


Perhaps it's a mix of these: 54285 combinations, plus 43015 cases where
the fare is different in each direction.
