The classic Solari board at Newark not only has that distinct chattering of the flipping action when information is changed, but it has arrow logos to boot. Here train 20, the northbound Crescent and train 133, a Northeast Regional are displayed. Laws such as the American's with Disabilities Act that require better messaging capabilities and the cost of mechanical maintenance have likely contributed to the demise of these information boards at many stations being upgraded to digital LED signage integrated with audio systems.
