Why transit operators choose E Display

In a terminal, information is the service. A passenger who can see the next departure, the right platform, and the walking time to their gate does not queue at the help desk. E Display transportation digital signage powers passenger information displays across airports, train stations, bus terminals, and transit hubs, schedules, gate and platform changes, wayfinding, and safety notices.

Every screen runs on our compact digital signage media player, or on our player app installed on any supported device, and takes live schedule and status data from your operations feed, so departures, delays, and platform reassignments update themselves. Wayfinding screens and directories guide passengers between concourses, dayparting matches content to peak and off-peak flow, and a service disruption or safety announcement can take over every screen in the network in one click.

Uptime is the requirement, so offline caching keeps schedules and wayfinding on screen when a network segment drops, and screens recover automatically after a power event. Unsold screen time can be sold as advertising inventory with proof-of-play reporting for each advertiser, turning the passenger information network into a revenue line.

Transportation digital signage software is $8 per screen per month billed annually, with a free media player included on new annual license activations, see full pricing, browse the free signage templates you can adapt for your screens, or read about our digital signage media player that runs them.

Transportation digital signage FAQs

What is a passenger information display?

A passenger information display is a screen showing live departure and arrival times, platform or gate assignments, delays and service disruptions, wayfinding, and safety announcements. E Display drives these screens from a cloud dashboard and updates them automatically from your schedule feed.

Can screens pull live schedule and delay data?

Yes. Real-time schedule, gate, and status information can be fed in from your operations system or an API so departures boards update themselves, with manual override available for staff when needed.

What happens if the network goes down?

The TX9 player caches content locally, so the last published schedules, wayfinding, and safety content keep playing through an outage and re-sync automatically once connectivity returns.

Can we sell advertising on our screens?

Yes. Reserve zones or slots for advertising alongside passenger information, schedule campaigns by daypart and location, and give each advertiser proof-of-play reporting on what actually ran.

How much does transit digital signage cost per screen?

Software is $8 per screen per month billed annually ($96 per screen per year), with a free media player on new annual license activations. Large networks are quoted with volume pricing and onboarding support, contact us for a terminal-wide rollout estimate.

Can we override every screen during a service disruption?

Yes. An emergency or disruption message takes over the whole network, or a selected station, concourse, or platform group, in one click, and releases back to normal content when cleared.
