I travel into London (usually Waterloo) often, however sometimes I need to get to CJ to switch to the Overground. Choosing the correct train is vital.
I’d been to a concert at the South Bank complex, had 6am early start at work next day. Back into Waterloo, look at the board, “next train to Clapham Junction platform x, three minutes”. Quick jog across the concourse, tap in, board, set off, on board announcement and screen says first stop Woking! Find the guard who assures me that it IS stopping at Clapham.

Could have been that it was only scheduled to pickup (and not set down) at CLJ. Although normally they wouldn't show on the station boards either.

Exactly, I looked at the board with “next train to” and the list of destinations, so if it was a pick-up only it wouldn’t have been showing.
