Next train arriving in, how many minutes?

Station Clocks

Can I time travel by three minutes by walking from one side of the platform to the other?

Should I expect the train to come on schedule here?

    It might just be product malfunction..or one of the clocks are running out of battery and is slower..

    Those are all possibilities, though none would explain why the clocks were not kept in sync by the station master. And I have to say that I think a time vortex occupying the space between the edges of the platform is a much more exciting interpretation!

  3. Is it possible that is how long till the train was going to be arriving and they are countdown clocks, not time clocks?

    Many stations here do have countdown clocks, and I think that’s a fantastic idea. Unfortunately, that definitely was not the case in this particular station.

    Easy:
    Lack of training (Some ppl don’t even know it’s their job responsibilities) or lazy. πŸ˜›

    One thing you’ll learn is that the realities of life are more in your face and your first impression of what it is, usually is what it is. πŸ™‚
