New announcement at Marylebone

[Jamiescott1]

Caught my usual train today from Marylebone and the automated message for the Birmingham train announced to change at Lemington Spa for services to Birmingham International, Coventry and Manchester piccadilly. This is a new one on me (even during wcml disruption)

Sounds like whoever's controlling the system was bored and had a "What does this button do?" moment.

Sounds like they've used the 'change at' option on the system to specify up to 10 TIPLOCs/stations to announce as 'change at X for services to A, B, C, etc. I use it in case of cancellations, but agree they were likely bored. I've not yet found the option for 'change at Southampton Central for ferry and catamaran services to Cowes, Isle of Wight'- which I've heard on recordings, as it doesn't appear to be an option!
