Anyone bemused by LUL's inability to spell St James's Park


So what did they get wrong? The spelling of the area for centuries
before LUL was St James's Park.


Indeed, and LUL have generally followed that spelling (with a dot after
"St"). But there is one roundel sign on the eastbound platform that
says St. James' Park.
