Note the 10:22 Addlestone train on the board is shown as the "Front

coaches of the train".

I wish they'd say "Near" and "Far": I never know what "Front" means!

Also, unless you first walk to the very front of the train, and then
back, how do you know where front 8 starts?

At St Pancras, where one train used to split at Nottingham (front four
to Lincoln) they had an A-frame on the platform to mark the division.
