The railway station picture used to be on 8BS.  I think Hull station might
still be
using Beebs, it looked very much like it when I was last there, although that was
October 2007.

I would be very interested to know more about this system, the setup they
use or used and the software which runs it.

Best wishes,


Ian

I can't find it on the interweb at the moment, but someone had
a picture taken at a British station of a monitor above a
platform that was displaying
