The problem may be with journeys that use both SWT and Tube (and indeed
with journeys that might). The present rail & tube fairs are quite
expensive compared with NR only and Tube only are they not ?


They are. They are called 'Tube/Train' fares and are a relatively
recent innovation (though there were other types of through fares
available beforehand) - annoyingly whilst there is a public list of
the 2008 fares I haven't found one of the new 2009 fares.
