The Telos Network (TTN) and 4G Metro Form Alliance to Provide Trinity Railway Express Passengers a Wireless Network, Digital Media and Advertising
SUNNYVALE, Calif. (Business Wire EON) December 11, 2007 -- Robert (Bob) Douglas, TTN's President and CEO said, "We're excited about our partnership with 4G Metro and the opportunity to be named the content provider for the mobile wireless network. Our multi-year agreement offers certain brands sponsorship and advertising exclusivity in specified areas, and space will be available for any paying program sponsors desiring spot-branding. An initial trial or pilot phase on some cars is expected to commence by February 2008."
Kenneth Barr, a Fort Worth visionary and former mayor of the city of Fort Worth (1997-2003) said, "I am currently working with a group to promote and bring together the region where the trains will operate. By region I'm referring to the counties in North Central Texas surrounding Fort Worth and Dallas that approximates some 6 million people, making it about the 25th largest economy in the world. We also believe this population could double within the next 20-25 years. The Trinity Railway Express trains are an integral part of our growth plan. They help remove personal vehicles off our already congested freeways, and by installing the wireless services you're planning, you provide an inducement to ride them and significantly improve the quality and experience of that ride."
