On a slightly related note, the TfL fare finder appears to return

no
fares for Richmond - Clapham Junction journeys.
I wonder what would be charged for an actual PAYG journey (via
Willesden Junction or Earls Court and West Brompton.)


The TfL Fare finder also returns no fares for Kew Gardens - CJ and
Gunnersbury - CJ.

I guess this is either a mistake, or a purposeful omission from the
public Fare finder to try and dissuade people from thinking Oyster
PAYG is valid on the SWT.

Actually I've just checked the Fare finder for a Wimbledon - CJ fare
(via District line and West Brompton) and it does return fares for
that journey, so I dare say the missing fares from Richmond/ Kew
Garden/ Gunnersbury is more likely to be in error.

So yeah, I also wonder how a real journey would be charged.
Essentially depends on whether or not the public Fare finder database
reflects the 'real' Oyster database.


Also, if such a journey was made who would get the money ? and would
SWT get it all next year ?
