You'll probably find, if you look at a map, that although the journey
towards Cockfosters is called "Eastbound", the East-most station is
Manor House after which your journey heads back towards to the West (as
well as North).

IIRC the directions on the Picc are referred to as eastbound/westbound
between Heathrow/Uxbridge and Covent Garden, and northbound/southbound
between Covent Garden and Cockfosters.

Nope, we refer to the whole line as East West. What the
punt^Mcustomers are told on the platforms may be a different kettle of
fish.
