I recall as a boy seeing some large recording dials on the wall of the westbound (?) District/Circle platform at St James' Park which showed train movements on all of the LU lines. There was another set in the ticket concourse at Piccadilly Circus. Does anyone know what happened to these displays - and when?

St James’s Park dials are now in the reception area of 55 Broadway

I worked at Leicester Square and I think the other set were there. Leicester Square or offices outside was at one time where All the line controllers were and the Divisional Superintendent B (Northern Line). A was Met&Bakerloo at Baker Street, C was District&Picc at Earl's Court and D was Central at Oxford Circus. No Victoria Line in those days. East London Line was under the Met.
I got the organisation from How the underground works 1963 revised 1968. We used to sell it in the Ticket offices, for a commission of course.

The clocks were active at Broadway until the HQ Controllers moved to Baker Street a few years ago.
