Default J sign at the end of Finchley Road station

"J. Public" typed

Also, what's the problem with opening both sets of doors at stations like
Uxbridge, Golders Green etc., where there are platforms on both side of the
train.


At Golders Green, Platform 1 (northbound) is not open to the public now.
If a northbound train terminates at Golders Green, passengers should
alight on the platform where northbound trains go, (Platform 2/3) to
avoid confusion.

At Uxbridge, I think the practice is to try and separate the Met Line
from the Piccadilly. Keeping both sets of doors open would encourage
yobs to use the trains as shortcuts between platforms and allow trains
to get very cold.
