Will Webtis based systems (e.g. the old versions of TPE's site, or RedSpottedHanky etc.) not offer the ticket alone at least? As they do not usually require the selection of an itinerary, although they do require that you can actually generate an itinerary (even if this is not an itinerary you intend to follow).

To get these fares to appear your journey to a London Underground station needs to go via Wimbledon, but avoid Clapham Junction. The obvious route of changing to the Underground at Wimbledon won't work, because the journey planner data ("fixed links") supplied by RDG/TOCs to booking engines doesn't include any connections to the District Line at Wimbledon.

Searching for Epsom to Moorgate via Tooting will bring the fares up though; see attached screenshot from National Rail Enquiries.

Surely that route doesn't actually go via Wimbledon Park though? :|

Thank you, this workaround did the job.
