This is one of the departure boards at the station.

LCR is attempting a different model from the one in which passengers congregate around a single departures board.

There will be a number of innovative customer information points around the station as well as small departures board like this one, which will scroll train information.

The LCR spokesman explained the company felt the previous application of technology in railway stations hasn't been imaginative enough.
