Can any forum member throw light on the weirdness that the TIGER feed, and the platform 2 screen, and the
NRE website, wrongly show that today's Very Short Term plan trains from Didcot to Oxford are running wrong line?RAD screen.jpg

They’re all showing in Darwin as being Platform 2, so my best guess is they changed something to allow single line working to work with Darwin and haven’t changed it back, or someone just accidentally set it to Platform 2 from habit.

Surely not 'from habit'? Possibly 'by mistake' ?

During the blockade, trains were running wrong-line from Oxford to Radley. And therefore departing back to Oxford right line from platform 1 (Down).

This is annoying me, but I’m sure there was a thread within the last few weeks about an area of line where the NR data for platform numbers was transposed. I’ve tried to find it with no success. Was it one of the signalling mapping discussions?

That was where it was inverted on the TRUST reporting, after resignalling, this is in Darwin before the service arrives.

It's even weirder than I thought. I've just watched 2L16. Initially, displaying only on platform 2. Then, briefly, on both platforms. Then, briefly, a message scrolled on the bottom line of the pl 2 screen: The 1934 to Oxford will now depart from platform 1. Then pl 2 showed the next departure to Didcot, and the last departure to Oxford.
