A station platform with a nice indicator board with bright orange lettering on it
looks *nicer* than one with the lettering switched off. The fact that the information

But it could also be right.

But if the passenger has no way of knowing this, what's the point ?

If there wasn't good reason to think otherwise one might be almost led to
believe that you worked for London Underground yourself. Possibly in
the planning dept.


Is that just the audio or the rotating message display too ?

the visual displays aren't annoying; and in any case your question borders on the
absurd when asked in respect of blind passengers.

Blind passengers can't read notices that say this indicator board might be wrong,
either.

On the Underground I believe where necessary blind passengers are entitled to assistance
from a member of the station staff. Although quite possibly on regular journeys others
rely
on information and help from fellow passengers.
