The T4 trains will actually display T4 & 123 as a destination;
the T5 trains will show T123 & 5 as a destination.

So for people heading to T123 in a hurry, and the first train is
to T4 & 123, perhaps the best strategy is to board it anyway and
then lean out of the carriage at Hatton Cross to see if the platform


departure indicator (assuming that there is one) shows a T123 & 5
train less than (say) eight minutes behind.

I'm not sure there is a "train describer" (in endearing LU lingo) at
Hatton Cross - but if there isn't one, there needs to be!


There is now - it went in a month or two ago when the signalling
work was being done for T5.


Did Hounslow West get one too? I was surprised on Boxing Day to find no
platform indicators at all there.
