4hw.com.cn: with the continuous development and progress of the society, people's daily life has also brought a lot of good news. Recently, China's high-speed rail has ushered in a major upgrade. High speed rail tickets will be "paperless". Let's have a look.
China Railway Corporation officially launched! In the future, the high-speed rail across the country will support the use of ID card, and then say goodbye to paper tickets!
High speed rail tickets' Paperless'
Recently, Lu Dongfu, the party secretary and general manager of China Railway Corporation, announced at the Forum on the development of intelligent high speed railway and the 10th anniversary of the opening of Beijing Tianjin Intercity Railway that e-ticket will be promoted nationwide next year.
At that time, passengers may be able to 'swipe their mobile phones' and' swipe their ID cards' to enter the station directly, instead of having to exchange paper tickets before taking the train.
E-ticket, also known as "paperless" ticket, refers to that after the passenger orders the ticket through the Internet, he / she can directly hold the second-generation ID card and other valid ID documents through the entrance of the railway station and the ticket checking gate without exchanging for paper ticket.
It's not uncommon for high-speed railway to use ID card to enter the station. In fact, it has been gradually implemented since the realization of real name system management of train tickets in China. I believe that many friends have experience in using ID card directly.
But for a long time, most areas of our country still need to carry out "ticket inspection" to get in the station.
At present, the number of high-speed trains between beishangguangshen and the main second tier cities in China has basically realized ID card swiping.
There are still many high-speed railway stations running between other second tier cities and some geographically remote areas, which still do not support 'Paperless' ride. When passengers take these trains, they still need to exchange paper tickets at the ticket office of the railway station to get in.
As soon as the fourth quarter of this year, China Railway e-ticket business will carry out pilot operation
In recent years, it has become more and more common to use mobile phones to take buses and subways. Electronic payment has profoundly changed our life.
The reporter learned from Wuhan Bureau of China Railway that as soon as the fourth quarter of this year, China Railway e-ticket business will carry out pilot operation! At that time, on some pilot lines, passengers may be able to 'brush mobile phones' and' brush identity cards' to directly enter the station for riding without exchanging paper tickets, which will be promoted in the national high-speed railway next year.
Why don't some trains support 'Paperless' tickets?
Railway personnel explained:
One possible reason is that the departure station or terminal station of these trains does not have an automatic gate supporting ID card swiping;
Second, these trains have not been equipped with the equipment to brush the ID card for ticket checking, which can not complete the ticket checking process in the process of train operation.
In addition to swiping ID card, some domestic high-speed railway stations have opened the function of 'face recognition'.
However, some passengers are full of joy after trying to find that the 'face recognition' function of some stations actually needs to be matched with the ticket to complete the entry.
They were prompted when they experienced the novel 'brush face ride' that 'please put the paper ticket on the top of the ID card as shown in the figure', so they had to hurry to the population window and the automatic ticket machine in the ticket hall to wait in line, and even some people missed the bus.
Nowadays, the upgrading of train tickets in China has experienced four generations. Looking back at the train tickets of these generations, Xiaobian just wanted to say, 'it's really old!'
First generation: cardboard train tickets
This is a 25 mm & times; 57 mm 'cardboard ticket'. This kind of ticket takes the longest time and can be called 'granddad generation'. From the 1940s to the 1990s.
