Some do turn round at Kennington, and that's quite important. But once the
train's south of there, yes, this does seem a bit pointless. Presumably
the technology is just too inflexible to handle this. Although since that
degree of sophistication would be easily attainable by a bright
10-year-old working on a BBC Micro, i am at a loss to explain why!
