Approaching Oxford Circus on a Northbound Bakerloo Line.
Automated announcement comes out of the speakers; "The next station is Waterloo, change here for... blah blah".
Cue some puzzled looking tourists. Waterloo is four stations before Oxford Circus.
In my head the Bakerloo Line is so solid and chunky with old technology it should either work, or it goes phut. A bit like a Bakelite telephone.
I was therefore surprised (and I've never seen it happen before on the Brown Line) that the on-board announcements got out of sync with the stations. At least it has kicked the hiatus into touch.
