Nice to see that digital projected advertising is finalllyyy being implemented at Kings Cross on the SB Victoria Line platform 4.
This replaces old fashioned 'paper' adverts stuck to the walls with so little care and attention with modern, new, clean projections. According to some info, the projectors will go dark when a train enters the platform and light again when the train departs. There was also some speculation of bluetooth intergration so passengers can get more info from the advert?
As of a couple of days ago, only one projector had been hung so it could still be in testing for a long time.
IMHO it seems to have been in testing at Charring Cross disused platforms for years now. Projectors for digital advertising are well documented on some of the dissused stations websites and some of those photos are oldddd.
Nice to see another 21st century advancement anyway. No more ripped and badly pasted adverts!

When I went to Frankfurt for a couple of weeks in February, they had this at all U-Bahn stations in the central area.
When a train was about to come in, it sensibly reverted to
"Achtung! U-Bahn faehrt ein!" (Attention! A train is arriving!). Does the KX one do this?
