Taking a chance

Arrived at the station this morning to find the notice "6:43 Moorgate - Cancelled" up on the board. Was just about to pull out the G1 to write up a rant when up pulls a train... Interesting... The guy comes out of the office to signal the driver so I ask "Is this the 6:43?" "Yes" "The board says cancelled" "???". He disappears back into the office to find out what's wrong. In the meantime they are closing the doors so I hopped on without being sure where this thing is going... Fingers crossed...

Back the original planned rant. Under the line saying the train is cancelled there is a scrolling list headed by "Calling at:". Surely if the train is cancelled that should be "Not Calling at:" or even better, give a reason for the cancellation...

Looking good so far. West Hampstead should be next if this is really is the 6:43.
