The MBTA recently unveiled a long-awaited countdown sign at South Station, telling waiting riders how when the next trains will roll in.
The LED displays are part of a pilot program that could be extended to all 51 Red, Orange, and Blue Line stations by the end of the year.
Like so much about the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, the reason for Boston’s delay of the countdown signs amounts largely to age and finances.
