Travel memorabilia made its way into the homes of millions of travelers, and the variety of home décor serves as wanderlust inspiration for every moment not spent traveling. Vestaboard is a new product that brings home the essence of an old European train station, evoking the glory days of glamorous train travel with a touch of antiquity.

Vestaboard’s train station display board can display any message the owner chooses. Just like the schedule boards that flip to show train departure times, the Vestaboard uses the same split-flap functionality to display up to 161 letters or numbers at a time, but with modern-day advantages.

Vestaboard’s message can be configured and controlled via smartphone using an app that allows users to choose the scheduling of the messages and display an array of patterns and colors. So even though the board can change its message or design depending on the user’s mood, the old-school aesthetic adds an antique touch to the home or office.

The board also works with Alexa and Google Home, and thus can connect to apps, including calendars and Twitter, to show schedules or work information among team members.

Although pre-orders for 2018 are no longer available, those interested in purchasing a Vestaboard can sign up for an advanced notice list for summer 2019, with an estimated price of $3,495 (with discounts for those who pre-order).

United flyers are sure to notice these enhancements from the moment they step on board: Each new or updated plane sports remodeled seats, seatback entertainment screens for everyone, Bluetooth connectivity and more, all adding up to a better experience on every journey.
