One particular example is at Leeds the York via Harrogate service is the one people going to the cricket at Headingley need to get and a Journey Planner might tell them to get the xx:29 towards York but the departure screen at Leeds station won't show an xx:29 to York as it's displayed as Poppleton instead.

The train will be marked up for its final destination , but the platform screens will be marked up for the final station call , wouldnt you be aggrieved if your train took longer than you thought.

With newer and better information screens these days there is less and less of that sort of thing happening as more via's can be put up on main boards than before .
