Firstly, thanks to Galvanize for answering my question about Foxton in another thread.
On a similar subject, whenever I'm on a train from King's Cross to Cambridge, I've noticed the in-train announcements saying something along the lines of "This is the xx:xx FCC service to Cambridge, via Stevenage". I mean... Of course it's gonna go via Stevenage - where else is it going to go via?! Wouldn't it make more sense to say "via Hatfield" or someplace near so as not to confuse passengers about whether it takes the main line or the Hertford loop?
