visiting a friend in Sidcup this weekend, and would like advice on which route I am able to take in order to receive this fare screenshotted on the TfL website?

I have a 16-25 railcard on my oyster.

The TfL website says via Tottenham Hale, Stratford, and Lewisham. Does this mean I can get the £2.30 fare if I take:
1. Victoria Line to Tottenham Hale on Victoria Line
2. Tottenham Hale to Stratford on Greater Anglia
3. Stratford to Lewisham on DLR
4. Lewisham to Sidcip on Southeastern
?

Im just a bit baffled as the fare seems too good to be true.

If that’s what the Single Fare Finder says, then that’s what you’ll be charged. It’ll be triggered by the interchanges at Tottenham Hale and Lewisham, where you’ll need to tap in and tap out - don’t forget to do that on the DLR at Lewisham.

However, it won’t work this Sunday - there’s engineering works, so no service between Tottenham Hale and Stratford.

The same fare is quoted for via Highbury or Hackney Downs

Will still be problematic on Sunday - Mildmay Line also closed. Replacement buses operating, but not sure how the system will deal with Oyster touches at unexpected stations.
