Split-flip display
In my efforst to build a split-flip display I discovered that the old ones National Rail used to use were refered to as Solari and the last one was from Liverpool Street Station, here is the email from my house mate who’s dad used to work for the railways so has friends who still work there now…

To: Tom LynchI spoke to Tom (Guy from National Rail) this evening, he said that the last station that had Solari was Liverpool Street but that too has changed to another system. On the matter of new systems the latest LCD systems are to be found at St. Pancras Thameslink station and St Pancras Eurostar station. Tom said if your friend (me) wants to discuss station information systems with him to let me know, I will contact Tom, get his details and your friend can then contact Tom. Tom, by the way, is a Senior Signals and Information Systems Engineer.Please let me know if this of interest.xxxFrom: Claire AshfieldSent: Tuesday, April 07, 2009 12:55 PMTo: Brian AshfieldSubject: hiHi again, do you know of anything else that’s used to show information?
