TrainTrackr uses an API published by transportation that allows you to keep track of subway operation status. By connecting TrainTrackr to Wi-Fi, 333 LEDs arranged on the electronic board imitating a route map will blink, and you can display the actual position of the subway in real time.
There are two types of TrainTrackr, the London subway version and the United States Boston subway version. You can see the Boston version in action in the GIF animation below.

Also, the Boston version seems to have the station name written along the track on the board.
