So how does it keep the count of "The next station is..." displays
updated when that happens?

I don't think it does. My mother was travelling on a train from
Clapham Junction to Arundel; I don't know what had gone wrong,
but ... she told me afterwards that the electronic displays thought
they were going to London, not away from it, so that "The next
station is" was totally out of phase with reality! She said it was
very funny.

Oh... Looks like there are serious problems with the whole thing then. No
wonder the trains can't decide which doors to open if they don't even know
which way they're going! Let's hope they get these bugs sorted soon.
