Users of the app can show the mobile ticket to the train manager on their phones, and do not have to queue for tickets or to worry about losing tickets.

The ‘Train Tickets’ app has been developed by Masabi and supports iPhone, Blackberry, Android and Nokia smartphones as well as most other everyday handsets.
