I suspect this means one can buy a ticket to Watford West if one is mad enough, and about once a week a ticket gets issued to there instead of Watford Junction/High Street by mistake/perversity.

Apparently, it's people who are buying their tickets from ticket machines rather than booking office windows. The machines still have the button/code for Watford West as an option. The discussion I heard (at uk.railways) said they just call the passengers a taxi when it happens

People who collect railway tickets (such as me!) may be responsible for some of these. It's always fun to add an interestingly anomalous ticket to your collection! It's quite common for closed or otherwise inaccessible stations to be "left over" on self-service ticket issuing systems. Sadly I have no Watford Wests in my collection...
