While they were updating, they should have had a closer look at the extra
stations now with disbled access.  Lidcombe is listed (which only recently
received access), yet St Leonards has been slated for a while as having
lifts installed.

I bet the new station signs will display Sydney Central

Olympic Park says Sydney Central too, but only on some selected trips.
Maybe once the station is upgraded, all DVA's will broadcast this.
