McDonalds in Poland figured out a creative way to make waiting for the train a little less agonizing for passengers and a little more profitable for their trainside location.
In cooperation with PKP (Polish State Railways), McDonalds installed a special timetable 50 meters from the main hub of Warsaw’s Central Train Station. The timetable displayed departure time, destination, track number, and train platform information as usual. But the wait/delay time was displayed in hamburgers, cokes and fries. 😎
While making the train station a more enjoyable place for waiting passengers, McDonalds saw an increase of 4,500 customers in the first month itself!
