Who messed up the clocks?

« on: June 02, 2009, 18:13:54 »

all hail the iphone! the only reliable way of uploading pics from it when not by your computer is the facebook uploader but then you need facebook talking of times... is the time displayed on iphone applications and the info display at stations arrival times or departure times? at exeter central swt seems to be departure and fgw arrival :-)

Slough and Oxford clocks were both wrong by almost an hour - problem with the new CIS^▸ system. Was fixed at about 18.30.
