A train station had a very important safety notice in the age of the photo filter
In the interest of keeping passengers abreast of any relevant developments, train stations have wipe-clean boards which they can update as necessary. Not electronic screens with keyed-in information – actual boards with actual writing, just like cavepeople must have used.
Staff from Transport for London’s Willesden Green area are particularly good at making their boards interesting – like these from Willesden Green’s own station.

If I go missing, I hope someone calls the police, not TFL.

I’d never thought of this, actually.
I’ll make sure to get a tattoo of a QR code that links to my instagram now.

And those who were channelling Victor Meldrew …
Thought for the day: stop using information boards for trite bollocks.

Yes, that’s lovely – but ARE THERE ANY DELAYS ON THE LINE I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THAT YOU OVER-EASY USELESS STRIKING BASTARDS?

Imagine being this much of a curmudgeon.

One Reddit user made an excellent point.
There should be a little footnote telling you to disregard the message if you’re Angelina Jolie.

We wouldn’t want Angelina Jolie to run into trouble on one of her many trips to Willesden Green.
