Default CNNBELL and HIGHBYE?

In message , Mizter T
The Norwood Junction live departure board is currently showing a 2243
departure to "HIGHBYE". This calls at all stations to Dalston
Junction, arriving at 2323, then CNNBELL at 2325 and HIGHBYE at 2328.
CNNBELL must be Canonbury and HIGHBYE must be Highbury & Islington; I
wonder why they are being shown in that way?

There's some sort of fault on the LDB system for the ELL, and has been
for a few days at least


Those codes all in capitals are "TIPLOC"s - the railway's internal codes
for locations.

HIGHBYE is Highbury & Islington (ELL platforms). CNNBELL is Canonbury
ELL. For comparison, CNNB is Canonbury, CNNBYEJ and CNNBYWJ are
Canonbury East and West junctions, HIGHBYA is H&I (NLL platforms), HGHI
is H&I (Great Northern), and HIGHTRT is the AC/DC transfer track at
Highbury.
