I think the indicators are severely lacking for the City Circle.  With trains
being able to go to Campbelltown five different ways, the indicators should be
programmed to include a via in the destination.  This was not an issue for the
test indicators at Martin Place, because all Illawarra trains go the same way,
but on the City Circle, "Campbelltwn" could cause a lot of confusion.
