    Towards you or away from you?

    It keeps changing!

    I'll have to drink some wine just to calm my nerves!

    away definitely! My eyes are a bit dodgy with things like this though.

    Edit: I can make it change! (I'm a little excited as these things never work for me). If I look to the left it comes towards, if I look to the right it goes away.

    Reading the name on the platform it looks like Goodge Street, in which case the train will be going away from you, as that's the way the trains go from that station.

    They never work for me either but I'm the same, if I look to the left it comes towards me, look to the right and it fecks off away from me.

    I've asked, mate

    Apparently, I've got to get off my big bum and get one myself! If I weren't so scared of her, I'd tell her off!

    I would think that it would be coming towards as people are stood on the platform, probably waiting for it to stop so they can get on it. They don't look like they have just gotten off of it, or waving anyway goodbye.

    Thought it said one or the other. Never thought to loo at. The reflection. There are a few different lines there, so no idea then!

    Well, from the tunnel at the other end of the platform. It's not Goodge Street anyway.
