Starting from Moorgate this weekend

The Met trains used the bay platforms, which don't have DMIs, sadly. Thanks for replying, I'll make sure I go to Baker St if I have that situation again, as at least there will be a sign. It's a shame that the cuts will make the tube seem less safe at night, but I'm used to accountants seeing people as £x per year rather than appreciating what they actually do.

Firstly, the bay roads at Moorgate - whilst able to serve customers - are not advertised fully. The simple reason is that during the normal operational day, any train in there could depart at any time, and a last minute scramble by people trying to get on would delay the departure of that train, and also cause congestion back from Moorgate to Aldgate.

Always makes much more sense to remain on any westbound train to, at the very least, Great Portland Street, and check the indicator there for any following train that may better suit your needs. Basically forget the bay roads exist as a means to board a train, because if the train is going to leave, it will follow the one you're already on.

Secondly, don't expect too many announcements at that time of night on a Sunday. The station staff will likely be attending to many other duties, such as seeing out last trains on other parts of the station. The reduction in station staffing has made this task a little more difficult. Many stations also have restrictions on the time they can make their last announcements, sometimes due to local noise abatement arrangements.

Next time, if you're on a train heading in the right direction, then stay on it until such times as a more confident interchange can be made, especially late at night ;D ;D

There really wasn't any relevant information on the DMIs, unfortunately. Perhaps a recommendation from the Circle line driver to change at Baker St would be helpful, but I know it's probably asking a lot late on a Saturday night!

It was Saturday night, posted on Sunday (27th). The Circle line driver didn't say anything relating to the Met line. I know it was probably a bit foolhardy jumping out at Moorgate, but it's not unknown for the Circle line to hang about, and I had no idea when the Met line train parked up was planning to leave. I'll certainly always head to Baker St in future, but was just curious about the lack of information compared to Tower Hill. To a punter, one station in Zone 1 is very like another

Speaking as an accountant and a commuter, we are human as well, you know. The decisions about funding are essentially political - if you'd like to pay higher fares or more taxes then I am sure there can be more staff on the tube. But the moment you say more money is needed then you can be sure that everyone will start coughing and looking away and avoid eye contact.
