Default Piccadilly Line - Emma Clarke Announcements

It would be quite authentic not to have the announcements. They don't
seem to be used by the majority of drivers, probably because they cause
the destination displays in the cars to go blank. (Are LU/TubeLines
ever going to cure that?)


According to an article in the Metro a month or so ago, they're going to
get them working properly by the end of 2006 with every station done
automatically. I wonder if this is to do with the alterations that will
doubtless be required for Heathrow T4 services?

I'll refrain from comment as to whether this is ever likely.
