They reverse our system of having an electronic sign saying when the
next train is due; rather, they have a clock showing how long it's been
since the last train left. This can only go up to 10 minutes, so I'm
assuming that's minimum frequency. I saw it get to 9:57 at one point
so it was a tight thing!



A passenger information system that works on the presumption that
everything is running smoothly and trains really do come every ten
minutes... how bizarre!
