Unreserved Ticketing system (UTS):


Printed card tickets have been in vogue since the beginning. The work load involved in printing , accounting and issuing tickets to this mega segment has been a difficult task.
Indian railways introduced UTS to improve customer satisfaction,accounting, and reporting capabilities and reduce fraud.

Works In Progress In UTS:


UTS is planned to be implemented at 500 more stations during this year. Thin Client based UTS successfully implemented on East Central Railway in March 2005. It is planned to gradually extend thin client based UTS to other locations so that ticketing activity can continue even if the communication link or the server goes down for some time.
