NY1 NEWS

 

PATH train riders will soon be more informed than their subway counterparts during their trip across the Hudson River.

 

[float=right]245551.jpg[/float]The Port Authority will be installing TVs on 340 PATH trains beginning next year. They will show schedule information, as well as news and entertainment.

 

The Port Authority says its part of a push to increase communication with riders and improve customer service.

 

NBC is spending around $15 million to install the screens and upgrades at terminals on either side of the river.

Just something to most thats not explained in the aritcle, is that none of the PATH cars in the current fleet will have these. It would be on the new PATH cars, the PA-5s.

 

But something I won't be surprised, is if they try it somewhere on the PA-4......
