Interesting pictures on that blog. What I found funny and never considered it until now is that you have to go Underground to go "Overground" on the ex ELL stations.

To twist the logical part of your brain even further, have a think about where the platforms of the Underground and Overground are located at Whitechapel! |

Does anyone know if the rest of the Overground is getting that style of signage?

It isn't going to be easy to find space for that lettering at Caledonian Road and Barnsbury

I believe all stations served by the extended ELL will have it.

Apparently if an LO-run station is served by other operators (e.g. Willesden Junction) it has to have an upright free-standing white TFL 'totem' to include other symbols. All former Silverlink stations remain part of the National Rail network so will also have a double arrow logo too. 'Core' ELL stations are not part of NR so can get away with just an LO roundel, the 'silhoeutte' version of which is supposed to be reserved for the more architectually-interesting buildings.

I like it though. Gives it a modern, yet still art deco, feel.

Here's a remarkable vid featuring a few stations on the East London line. Dalston Junction looks almost ready!

Is it me or are the "overground" roundels outside the stations coloured in "underground" red rather than "overground" orange?  |

It's you. The ones at Surrey Quays are definitely Overground orange. There's very little in it, though; I suspect in many lighting conditions they'll appear to many people as slightly faded examples of the more-familiar Underground red...
