SNA Displays’ LED video technology enhances the passenger experience at one of the West Coast’s busiest transportation hubs by significantly improving pixel pitch and brightness from the previous technology and delivering greater visual clarity for transit information, wayfinding, station announcements, event messaging and local advertising. The new screens also increase overall display area, replacing previous units with larger formats that improve visibility and accessibility for travelers navigating the historic landmark.
The digital signage network includes a variety of display sizes tailored to the station’s architectural environment, ranging from 8’3” tall x 18’ wide wall-mounted displays to suspended, double-faced 3’3” tall x 18’ wide directional units, along with several large-format concourse displays measuring up to 4’1” tall x 24’7” wide. Pixel pitches include 1.5 mm, 2.5 mm and 3.9 mm, providing crisp, high-resolution viewing at multiple distances within the station’s waiting room, passageways, and passenger concourse. Collectively, the displays process more than 20 million pixels.
Working under Abbott Construction, the project’s general contractor, and Selbert Perkins Design, the project’s design firm, YESCO procured and installed the digital signage network throughout Union Station’s interior, integrating advanced LED video tech into the historic station while maintaining its architectural integrity. Opened in 1939, Union Station is listed on both the National Register of Historic Places and the California Register of Historical Resources.
