Clock headways. Maintaining strict discipline in scheduling clock headways is not just a marketing tool, but also makes it easier to set up connections and to avoid conflicts at junctions. Even more valuable for light rail or BRT -- clock headways can be meshed with downtown traffic signals to give the illusion of transit priority.
The brand name is actually Solari Udine, which is in (surprise!) the city of Udine in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region of northeastern Italy. I've seen their panels in Boston's MBTA subway stations.
Clock face!
How about "memory schedules" that are used in Switzerland?
