Sutton (London) is a GTR-operated station. Not all GTR-operated stations are equipped with barcode readers at gatelines. I'm assuming Sutton (London) has gatelines, and that it is one of those so equipped. Perhaps that will change.Well I just did a check and one still can't get an eTicket from Effingham Junction to Sutton. That route doesn't pass through any TfL owned stations and surely Sutton can't be so busy that using eTicket would slow things down too much.
To take an example or two, Effingham Junction to Guildford does have eTicket set as an option, at least for an Anytime Day Single SDS fare with route "Any Permitted"; I haven't checked other ticket types on this flow, but it's likely to be the same.
Similarly, Arundel to London Terminals (using a Super Off-Peak Day Single PDS, route "Not Gatwick Express") is also fulfilled to eTicket - this journey could pass through Sutton (London) (though break of journey is not permitted). An SDS for the same journey, though with route "Any Permitted", cannot be fulfilled to eTicket though. I am not sure why!
