My humble dream has become a reality:

Metro Introduces Outside Train Arrival Signs

WASHINGTON - Have you ever had to hustle down the escalator to a Metro platform, only to find your train pulling away? Metro is introducing signs posted outside stations to prevent customers from having to sprint.

"These signs would allow the customers to know what happens before they enter the rail station, about disruptions, about certain trains being on time, and also will provide the bus information as they leave the station," said Metro General Manager John Catoe.

The best part? "The $100,000 a year project is being paid for with advertising revenue [instead of higher taxes or higher fees]."

No more comments! Either someone has violated Godwin's Law, I'm tired of the discussion or, most likely, the ten-week window has closed. You can, however, contact me through email.
