If you enter and leave at the same station then you shouldn't be charged
since you clearly have not made a journey worthy of the name. The fact
that you are charged just demonstrates the complete mean spiritedness of
the people in charge at TfL and the TOCs.

If you thought about this for more than a few seconds you'd realise the
charge is made to prevent people cancelling their journey by touching in,
then touching an out gate without passing through, then heading off into the
sunset on a train, FOC..
