'Yes'

What I find stupid is, I believe these will not provide next train 
information. We've had this in Melbourne for years and it's been 
successful.

Interestingly, Junee has a "Talking Brick" similar to Melbourne's, but it 
communicates with a real human instead of a computer, and has no "red 
button" emergency control.
