Amtrak to Use iPhones to Verify Train Tickets
Numerous companies have incorporated Apple's popular iPhone and iPad into their everyday services. Amtrak joins the list - the government-owned passenger railroad company.
Amtrak announced yesterday that the company's 1700 conductors will be using the iPhone as a ticket scanner.
The conductor's iPhone will be equipped with a case, which will include an extra battery, a bar-code scanner and will come pre-installed with a special app to scan tickets.

Here in Denmark I have installed an app for the bus/train service in Copenhagen and its working really well. I guess this is the way to go for the future
