Here is one countdown clock testing at 5th Avenue-59 Street. If success, countdown clocks, like this one will be on all lettered lines. These are the first-ever countdown clocks, for the Division B Lines' besides the (L), to display the route and the time the train is away from the station. The entire system is based off of Bluetooth technology. It is not based off of track circuit indications, which makes it applicable for customer information purposes only.
