Default LM penalty fares scheme: New Oyster Bizarrity

On Mon, 22 Feb 2010 01:41:23 -0800 (PST) someone who may be JS
wrote this:-

If you want to use some or all of your payg balance to extend your
journey beyond the zones of your Travelcard (but within the LFZ + G)
on National Rail you can do so, but you must:
- set an OEP
- touch in
You will then pay a mixed travel maximum Oyster fare
You now have a valid ticket for travel beyond the zones of your
Travelcard on National Rail (+G)

The logic is entirely sound


Not in the least.

The logic is that on a bus or tram one touches the yellow pad on
entering a bus or tram, on a train one touches the yellow pad on
entering and leaving the railway. Too complicated already, but at
least understandable.

Then something else is added for using some trains. Illogical.
