Highbury and Islington sign changes - bye bye NLL

Noticed today that at some point in the last week, someone has finally changed the sign on the Great Northern platforms to say London Overground instead of North London Link.

Can't believe it's taken that long to be honest! It's a vinyl sticker so you can still partially see through it.

I doubt anyone is going to remove the NSE station signs anytime soon, but this one thing did make me think it's the end of an era!

One step at a time. Rome wasn't built in a day. And other applicable cliches of your choice.

Wasn't very long ago (2010, as I recall) that a sign at H&I pointing to the Northern City Line platforms read 'British Rail (Eastern Region')!

I was at Highbury and Islington earlier today and the sign from the Northbound Great Northern platform still gives directions to the North London Link!

Ah, I assumed they'd have done both directions. One step at a time...

There are still plenty of tube stations, including London Terminals and stations that have had new signs recently, where signage refers to British Rail

I can understand National Rail, but British Rail?!

For a while Highbury and Islington station was known as Highbury or Islington. Does anyone know of any other station with an 'or' as the conjunction?
