I have noticed that there is a new LCD screen placed at Brondesbury eastbound platform 2.
Has anyone seen the same thing at other stations?

Yeh. Pretty sure Shepherds Bush has them.
That seems like a exquisite waste of money given what it’s showing.
That cable loose behind it (assuming it is a cable) also looks like a trip hazard. The base of the stand itself looks rather large, not sure if that’s the best place for it… Showing the next 9 departures (to the same destination) also seems excessive.

Caledonian Road & B had something similar when I visited in late December.
These are emergency E-Ink Information Displays. If the signs are faulty, they can put this on platform. Low energy and wireless, the cable behind is for theft protection. Not sure why it's out when the sign is working, possibly waiting for it to be taken back somewhere else.

The two screens in that photo are out of sync with each other. The old screen says the next three trains are 3 and 8 and 13 minutes. The new screen says the next three trains are 5 and 9 and 14 minutes. I guess the new one is slower at updating.

The display has gone today.

When using Brondesbury Station recently I have noted that the Platform and Booking Office screens are often showing inaccurate times until train arrives. The other thing is they often get down to 1 minute away and then go back to 4 or 5 minutes, then the train arrives after around 2-3. Rather confusing, but fortunately trains are quite regular at the time I go through.
