Strangely enough, last Thursday an "all stations" Sutherland (of course
minus Erskineville & St Peters) service had the indicators displaying
Sutherland All stops.  I guess it has reverted back to showing Limited
Stops for ALL services??

By the way, Bondi Junction services display "Bondi Jn All Stops" for
its three station pattern, yet a Central service omits all references -
simply displaying Central.

Any news on how successful these new Martin Place plasma display
indicators are?  They were apparently being compared to the new round
of SPI with LED display at Leumeah using remote operation (albeit
poorly).
