Langside

New Customer Information Screen at Langside seen on 27 November. 
Unlike previous installations of CIS at island stations the latest wave has a single screen for both platforms.  Arrows are programmed in to make it clearer which platform is being referred to even if it gives the impression the numbers might swap over at any time!  Note 'Burnside Sclyde': this is the name according to the National Ticketing System even though there is only one Burnside so spelled and Strathclyde was abolished 15 years ago.  The NTS name of Newton is Newton (Lanark); this should really be 'Lanarks' but anyway the suffix is not displayed, presumably as it could suggest that the train was actually going to Lanark.
