Yes, you can view the Grand Central Terminal “Big Board” on your Blackberry or other mobile devices. This saves you trying to look over people’s shoulders in the station to view one of the few small monitors during rush hour. Just take a peak on your Blackberry on your way to the station.

Unfortunately, with my default Blackberry 8830 browser settings, the board is not colored or formatted very well, but it does update and is definitely usable. On the Opera Mini web browser it is colored, but a little large (when using mobile view) - still quite usable.

As far as I know, however, there is no way to view the other, equally important boards within Grand Central - for example, the monitors which you can use to figure out when the next train to your destination is (like the ones on the lower level). If anyone knows of a way, let me know!

We are definitely working on a mobile version of StationStops.com - we will be sure to give you a link to the big board as we do on the station pages, so stay tuned.

In the meantime, feel free to discuss this topic and other Grand Central Terminal topics on our Grand Central Terminal Forum
