They do if they are going via a very indirect route (using the curve between Tulse Hill and Streatham Hill normally used only for the Parliamentary train) to then be able to get onto the West London Line at Clapham Junction - as appears to have happened yesterday when I was astonished to see a steam train heading east across Tooting Common that had come through Brixton fifteen minutes earlier.

That's certainly an indirect route - as you don't need to go through Clapham Junction to get onto the West London line. I wonder what the reason was.
