AN Internet booking system for train tickets will be in use nationwide this year, a Ministry of Railways spokesman said yesterday.
The system would relieve the burden on railway stations and be more convenient for passengers, Wang Yongping said during an interview hosted by Xinhuanet.com.
Demand for train tickets is always high in China, especially during the Spring Festival.
Passengers desperate to return home line up for hours in freezing weather to buy tickets.
A real-name ticket purchasing system, which requires proven ID numbers when buying a ticket, will be expanded to high-speed railways following a trial run in several stations during this year's Spring Festival travel rush, Wang said.
He said the real-name system proved very helpful in ensuring railway security and cracking down on ticket scalping.
