ooooooooh, when I was like 17 I went for a job interview in Southamptan from London, was gonna move down there and all that (because that was really viable to me, on £14kpa, which is LOADS of money)....
... anyway, on the way back, I'm like "Oh cool, the sea, I didn't notice that on the train down here". And then an anouncment came a few hours later I ask the ticket guy how far are we from London, and he said about 6 hours, and I'm like "WTF? It only took 4 hours to come down" and he said "This is the train FROM london". I ended up in Devon.

No!
All the times I have used trains I have lived in fear of getting on the wrong one.
Thankfully it's never happened.

So what did you do when you got to Devon?

Thankfully the train back was more direct, but it was the only thing I could do, get the next train.
I reckon all trains should have something like the picadilly line has, a tickerboard saying "This is a X train to X, the next stop is X".
