While I generally see little reason for TOC names padding out
announcements in an integrated network, It was actually slightly less
jarring than when station announcements in LM land, made by the same
LM voice from the same control centre say "Southern Railway
apologises ..." when the Southern services are delayed by the same
problems as the LM ones.
At least they don't claim to apologise personally. Then again, I'd
rather hear it from Phil Sayer than the dystopian computer voice used
at Manc Picc and all the LM stations.
And I miss "Bletchley, this is Bletchley" with the classic RP voice,
though it was a lightning strike that killed that well before LM had
anything to do with anything.
