Revolutionary QR Code Machines Transform Travel Experience at N.F. Railway’s Major Stations!

Guwahati: Northeast Frontier Railway Boosts Cashless Transactions with QR Code Machines

In a significant push towards Digital India, the Northeast Frontier Railway (NFR) has equipped 588 booking counters with QR code machines across its five divisions: Katihar, Rangiya, Alipurduar, Lumding, and Tinsukia. This initiative facilitates seamless digital payments for passengers at major stations, enhancing convenience and efficiency in ticketing.

The deployment includes 167 machines in Katihar, 96 in Alipurduar, 87 in Rangiya, 175 in Lumding, and 63 in Tinsukia. As the festive season heightens passenger demand, NFR has introduced special trains to handle the rush. The QR code machines are particularly beneficial during this period, allowing travelers to bypass long queues by opting for swift digital transactions, thereby aligning with safety protocols and reducing cash handling.

Passengers can book tickets via various digital platforms and scan the QR code at stations, enabling a contactless, faster, and secure ticketing process. This advancement marks a milestone in NFR’s journey to modernize passenger services, offering enhanced amenities and adopting innovative technologies.

Earlier, NFR had launched mobile app-based ticketing through the Unreserved Ticketing System (UTS) app, allowing passengers to secure unreserved tickets conveniently from their smartphones. This latest initiative aligns with Digital India’s goals of promoting contactless ticketing, cashless transactions, and enhancing customer experience. NFR encourages all rail users to embrace these cashless facilities, contributing actively to the digital transformation of Indian Railways.
