One current example of indicating airport services is distinctly
unhelpful. The District Line diagrams in the D-stock trains show
Ealing Broadway as an interchange for "trains to Heathrow", thus
encouraging LU customers to go there and wait for the half-hourly
Heathrow Connect service, paying (not to LU) either an extra £6
for the privilege, or £6 + penalty fare if they try to use a Z1-6
Travelcard on HC. The interchange with the Piccadilly at Acton
Town, where they should not need to wait more than 5 minutes for a
Heathrow train, is not shown as a route to Heathrow.


That's ridiculous, and downright mean!
Is there any way of lobbying LUL to change it? Should be fairly
cheap and easy with those little sticker thingies they use to amend
the line diagrams.


I've sent a complaint using the form on the LU website.
