It's too much to expect someone has to learn a different set of rules for

What, two sets of rules? *If it's a train, touch in/touch out, if it's a
bus or tram, touch in.

Depends on the train. Some stations have Oyster machines but you're not
supposed to use them.

?!

If you're speaking about stations that are served by some lines that
accept Oyster PAYG and some that don't, then on the lines that don't
accept it the rule quite clearly is that you *don't* use it for that
journey. If you do then the train operator won't get any money for the
journey you make, and you will be travelling without having paid the
correct fare (you will instead have paid a quasi-penalty fare to TfL,
but that won't go to the train company).

Where it is and isn't accepted is detailed he
