My local station (a bit further out) does have indicators, but they

commitments.

No, it's because dotmatrix displays are cheap, while closing a station
to install new wiring ducts, paying electricians, putting the ceiling
back, etc, etc, is expensive. So you might as well add the indicators
during the refurb, rather than waiting til the signalling is replaced.
