I caught the same error message in early February.

'TEMPERATURE WARNING!!' message on the PIDS at Southern Cross Station

The PIDs were unusually dim this afternoon. Walking up to read one I soon found out why, a red “temperature warning” flashing in one corner of the screen. Even those on the platforms could not take the heat.

I had a look – and it doesn’t.

I have plenty (I think). I was able to walk down every day before and during construction. Let me see what I can find.

To make matters worse I already missed getting a photo of the original station!

Trains are every twenty minutes during weekdays, not sure about weekends as I don’t live in the area anymore.
Of course there are three stations there, the new elevated one, the restored original one underneath, and the model station that is a book exchange, next to the original station. It’s a really neat model.
