The present invention provides an in-vehicle congestion-status display system that notifies railway users of a congestion status of each vehicle of a train. The in-vehicle congestion-status display system includes a main server that calculates a congestion rate immediately before boarding, which is a predicted value of a congestion rate when alighting of users is complete, of each vehicle of a train, based on a congestion rate during travel and an alighting rate acquired in a past and held as information indicating a difference between a congestion rate during travel immediately before arriving at the station and a congestion rate when alighting of users is complete after arriving at a next stop of the train, and a display device that notifies users of the congestion rate immediately before boarding calculated for each vehicle of the train.

In-vehicle congestion-status display system and congestion-status guidance method

In a train information display system that displays an operation information on each train in a train, a ground system adds the information on the degree of influence on the passengers of each train to the operation information, and transmits the resultant operation information to a transmission-reception device. A content data server stores in advance, as normal-time display information, at least one of advertisement information and destination guidance information that are to be displayed during normal operations. Instruction output devices instruct content display units to display the operation information and normal-time display information in a display sequence corresponding to the influence information received by the transmission-reception device.
