I don't think this is true, but i could be wrong. What is your basis for thinking you can't drink on that train?

  The law, announcements on those trains, as said, anything that TFL touch's and with that, if you can pay for or use that train with an Oyster card, you not going to be drinking without risk of a large fine. So based on experience, other experiences and laws. Also note many companies run dry-trains, so with that, can't drink or carry(questionable as long as sealed and not been open you can afaik). https://www.drinkaware.co.uk/alcohol-facts/alcohol-and-the-law/drinking-alcohol-in-public-places/ https://www.drinkaware.co.uk/alcohol-facts/alcohol-and-the-l...

    What law? I've never heard of any connection between being able to pay with Oyster and not being able to drink - this sounds like an old wives' tale to me. I know there are specific trains where drinking is banned. Elsewhere in this thread, there are some examples in Wales. I can't find anything about it being banned on trains to Chessington, or anywhere on South Western Railway, though. Not can their help person on Twitter: https://twitter.com/SW_Help/status/1250795304837951490?s=19 https://twitter.com/SW_Help/status/1250795304837951490?s=19

    The link you cite clearly says the ban is only for trains operated by TfL, and occasional trains such as ones to football matches. Rather than doubling down on your argument, accept you are wrong and move on.
