Default Overground

No it isn't. All London Overground services are also part of National
Rail so every station that those trains serve will have the double arrow
sign outside. Interestingly that will mean that Whitechapel - in modern
times just LUL - will gain NR signage (or at least should do).


So, I read this and thought "I'm sure I remember reading in a signs
standard that Dalston Junction-Surrey Quays will be Overground roundel
only". This one says you are right:

However, if you change Issue02 to Issue01, you get the first version,
which did have the idea that part of the Overground network wouldn't
be part of National Rail, and so therefore the arrowheads wouldn't be
displayed... Curious.
