Comment on Paper and mobile train tickets to be replaced with GPS tracking in new travel trial

TfW have also implemented this in every station in the South Wales metro area. Works pretty well and it is so much cheaper than paper ticketing.
Not sure why this won’t be able to be used in England too. Sometimes I think that some in government just push for the new shiny tech thing (be it AI, GPS…), without considering how applicable it would be.

Well there are nearly 2600 stations in England, many of which are low-footfall.
