I understand that initial plans are just to cover the existing National Rail linier "banner" signs with stickers, then move to full Underground-style square signs in time as stations are refurbished. In additon any sighting of new LUL signage on the parts of the Bakerloo and District Lines taken over yesterday would be welcome. I've had an unconfirmed report that orange-ringed signs have gone up at Kenton, yet of course these should be red-ringed as this stations now comes under LU, not LO. The West London Line platforms at West Brompton were fully signed up on Sunday. Orange station names and the roundel present. Kenton certainly had the same, but there were still uncovering things. Also, the car park on the Wealdstone side at Harrow & Wealdstone was having the signs changed on Sunday morning. It is now a TfL / NCP sign rather than the old Silverlink one. The attendant's cabin is still in Silverlink Blue, Grey and Green though. The new ticket barriers at H&W were in working order too this morning and at nearly every station, the Silverlink names on signs were covered over (as they were inside and out on the mainline trains with tape). Yesterday, 313 120 had had all the internal maps etc changed for London Overground, but 313 119 retained the Silverlink ones. I had a brief look around yesterday and took some snaps: http://www.flickr.com/photos/tompage...donoverground/ The only place I really noticed branding was at Highbury & Islington and on the side of one of the class 313s. I thought this was a bit odd, as Gospel Oak seemed a much more improved station (the ticket barriers and wide-aisle gate looked very nice), but that had the old silverlink signs. Tom |
