Some read fast, some read slow. Some read well and some have trouble, just like us Aspies.

I also listen to the announcements but it's entirely understandable why she can't do that.


Has your mother often been at big railway stations by herself before? Because they can be a bit overwhelming for people who are not used to them. If someone doesn't know they need to look for an information board it can take a while to notice it. Or if they're not familiar with these boards some people can take a bit longer to figure out what kind of information it provides and how to quickly look stuff up. Like, they might start reading it line by line just to figure out what kind of information it contains.


No but because she's NT/a people person, she'd been to that station more than me.

And I'm also not someone who goes to big train stations a lot.

She goes more than me cos she meets up with friends there for shows or shopping or whatever.

Trains are usually easy when you get to know their patterns as trains follow patterns.... And if there is a change the patterns are easy to tell and to work out if you know these pattersn and how these patterns are connected to other patterns if that makes sense?
