I just got back from a couple weeks in Japan. Tokyo is amazing. I'll post some pictures once I get them all organized and uploaded.
Now, I am a big fan of anything that indicates when the next subway train is coming. I've seen implementations in many places using lightboards saying when the next train (or two) is coming. Like many places, Tokyo has those, but not in ever station.
In stations without the lightboards, they have a sign with all the times that the subways will arrive at the station beside a clock.
Of course, it requires the trains to run on time. In Tokyo they do, and it's a very easy way to know when the next train is coming.
Now, I know that the TTC does this at bus stops. I wonder why they've never done it in the subway.
