Default Northern Line Signalling

One think I have notice in the last couple of days is that the
indicator board at Totteridge seems to be slightly more reliable.
Previously, when it indicated, say, 3 minutes to the next train you
could assume it meant 5. And the 'Train Approaching' announcement
meant 'Train arriving in about 90 seconds.

Yesterday and today I was surprised by the train arriving almost
within the announced period. Even though today it stuck at 3 minutes
for about 2:30 minutes then rapidly advanced to 'Train approaching'.

If only they would show more trains via Charing Cross ....
