I remember a TV-based advertising scheme on the Piccadilly westbound
(?)platform at Leicester Square, and also at Heathrow T4 platform -
don't think these lasted longer than a few years.

Also, the Paris Metro in the 1980's had something on a couple of dozen
platforms if I remember rightly - called 'Tube' I believe - that was
removed in the early 90's.


In some of the stations in Sydney (NSW), e.g. Kings Cross, they have
white-painted sections of tunnel wall with images projected on to them
from what looks rather like a slide projector. If I remember correctly
they were advertising new cinema releases.
