Maps CS and WR cover the GWML route into London via Reading and

Thx. I thought it might be valid on the WLL, I think I might have
used my old season ticket to Olympia before, hadn't really realised
that was where the validity ended.

So it sounds like a Fleet to Clapham off-peak return at gbp11.20 and a
Clapham to Shepherds Bush off-peak return at gbp3 are the way forward.

I'm on a Network card so it will be a £16 return or a travelcard.

No idea why the through fare is so expensive tho'.

It looks like there are now only TfL fares on that route, not NR ones,
and you can't combine them with a super off peak.

So for some reason it seems you can book "anytime return to CJ +
anytime return from CJ to SB" or "off peak return to CJ + anytime
return from CJ to SB" but not "super off peak return to CJ + anytime
return from CJ to SB".

The NRE website doesn't give the London Stations fare for Olympia
either.

Oh how I miss my season ticket, it was all much easier then!
(Especially now you can use Oyster on the WLL)

More collapsing fare integration inside and outside of London! Given how
much we outside London pay to subsidise TfL and NR services in London it's
a scandal!

The previous poster was wrong Colin, Anytime and Offpeak through fares are
available as per normal, it is only the SWT specific SOP that isn't.

Doesn't alter my complaint, that once you cross TOC boundaries, fare
integration goes pear shaped.

If you mean the 'London Terminals' fare, that'll be because Kensington
Olympia isn't a member of the 'London Terminals' fares group. Changed in
the mid 90s IIRC.

Kenny O is however a valid interchange for cross London NR/LU/NR transfer.
