When I left site to come home today I changed from the Jubilee Line to the Bakerloo line at Waterloo. Unless I'm dreaming the bottom line of the CIS▸ (Customer Information System) displays was showing what I assume were the draws for the next stage of the Rugby World Cup...did anyone else see this?

Live updates, news and results from the 2015 World Cup games will be broadcast across the Tube and DLR▸ (Docklands Light Railway) network following a tie-up between TfL» (Transport for London - about) and broadcaster ITV.

Wherever passengers are on the network, they won't miss any of the action as the information will be available on all digital information boards at station entrances and on platforms.

The partnership is part of TfL's wider plans to generate ^3.4bn in non-fare revenue by 2020/21 to reinvest in the running and vital modernisation of the transport network.

Rugby World cup comes to the Tube
