The display at West Ham is indeed unusual, the usual "TfL minute" on a countdown display is more than 60 seconds, not less.

It really is astonishing that TfL have still not sorted out the sub surface Countdowns. Even some provincial bus networks have accurate GPS countdowns these days.

Will this “Migration Area 6” be the end of the story and fix this for good?

Knightsbridge. Very lavatorial. Perhaps appropriately.

Migration Area 6 in January will extend modern computer controlled signalling as far as Becontree bringing massive improvements to the Next Train Indicators. This should solve the unreliability once and for all.

Further improvements when Area 7 extends computer control to Upminster - currently scheduled March/April next year.

Not just the Central car line diagrams need to be updated, as the Jubilee also has the issue of a stricken Bond Street.

I was on a H&C line heading towards Barking yesterday. We pulled into Liverpool Street, and the announcement on board didn't mention Elizabeth Line, but did mention TFL Rail. So seems it's not just the central London diagrams that need some updating.

Are there any plans to put the the next train indicators at Mile End and Whitechapel Underground where they can be seen?
At both stations they are hidden from view by other signs unless you're pretty much underneath them.

The platform indicators at West Ham and Bow Road may appear modern, but the technology that provides the train information was installed in the 1950’s and is always about to be replaced, but the date for this like West Ham’s minutes is always incorrect.

This prompted me to check the car line diagrams on the TfL site. I think the newest diagram is 2017 and the oldest is the Piccadilly Line, 2012, so there isn't one for the Elizabeth Line.

Northbound Piccadilly line at Finsbury Park generally spends about 15 seconds on 2 minutes and about 90-100 on 1 minute.
I assume this relates to when trains pass signals rather than speeding up and then slowing down to keep us on our toes
