The platform is too short.

And has this ever been indicated on the map?


Don't think so.

Just been looking in a 1994 timetable (amazing what you keep lying
around) and they were only stopping (what's up and down here?) in the
Moorgate-bound direction. Nearly all of them were set-down only.

In 1997 it was similar (but off-peak services had mainly gone by
then). I mention it because I find a 1997 London Connections which
shows the route as limited service, but makes no mention of the
directional restriction at Barbican.

Ah, here's the autumn 1993/4 timetable which is mostly similar, but
shows pickup only stops at Barbican at

1658 to St Albans
1716 to Bedford
1829 to St Albans
1858 to Bedford

Haven't got anything earlier than that.
