Hi I have seen you have put display in the baker loo stating when the next train will arrive. I was wondering if we can get announcement for every stop and service for Brighton to Eastbourne and Southsea as it be more realistic and the display saying witch train is going where and what station is next
That's the only downside to all this, no display boards (apart from the Bakerloo Line), would be nice to see what trains are arriving next. I don't know how it's done, but getting it working on a complicated route such as the Bakerloo line is a start.
Actually, Bakerloo is probably fairly simple to do as you have dedicated track for one line. It would be far more complicated in, say, Cologne Hbf where on any platform could arrive any train to any destination (including off-map).
They are not dynamic on Bakerloo, they are pre-set to follow the timetable. Thus if you leave the station early the sign will still say your train is approaching and if you arrive late your train will be shown as departed. It would be masses of work for them and in my opinion would add very little value. I’d rather they focus on the driving experience with enhanced sounds. Some boards just saying general information or security announcements is fine by me.
Something has happened to the display signs at the stations now on the Bakerloo Line, they stay on all night,when they used to be blank, and the waiting time now says over 45--59 mins, so someone has tinkered with them.
