Rail module for metro, light rail and commuter lines

The Rail module is built for high-frequency urban transit: metro, light rail, tram and commuter lines where passengers travel station-to-station without seat reservations. Publish lines and stations, set zone or flat fares, and sell single-ride, return and day-pass tickets as QR or contactless codes. It plugs into the same B2B and B2C booking engine used by every other PHPTRAVELS module, so rail, trains, buses and flights share one admin panel.

Line, station & fare zone management

Add unlimited metro and light rail lines with their stations and interchange points, then price journeys by zone or as a flat fare. Unlike long-distance train travel, rail journeys are high frequency and open boarding, so there is no seat map to manage, just fast station-to-station ticketing.
