I think what’s being pointed out is that the arrows within the triangles are normally drawn reflected left right, ie like below:
If you’re familiar with the sign it’s noticeably different to normal.
No idea the reason why it's like this, but it's not exactly a big deal is it, certainly not something I would look to get 'fixed' if it was at my station.Exactly - it's hard to understand how this has happened, you would almost have to go out of your way to do it wrong.

A Google image search brings up too many examples to count, but it certainly looks as if every sign manufacturer normally has it the same way round.Exactly - it's hard to understand how this has happened, you would almost have to go out of your way to do it wrong.
Probably a transfer that's been stuck on the wrong side of the print before affixing to the panel. LU's enamel signs are all handmade by one company in a relatively small workshop (on the IoW iirc).Exactly - it's hard to understand how this has happened, you would almost have to go out of your way to do it wrong.
The standard warning symbol mimics a lightning bolt, so I think should point downwards.You could argue that on the Underground the arrow should in any case be coming up from below.
Having said that, aren't certain lightning strikes occasionally up from the ground to whatever's above (such as a storm cloud)?The standard warning symbol mimics a lightning bolt, so I think should point downwards.
You'll be pleased to know there's plenty of flexibility in the regulations for the images used.I agree with the first bit. I dunno about the second as I'd be paranoid about the health and safety brigade saying the sign doesn't conform to blah blah blah.
Small differences from the pictograms or symbols shown in Schedule 1 of the Regulations are acceptable, providing they do not affect or confuse the message that the sign conveys and as long as the resultant sign still meets the relevant identified ‘intrinsic features
