New ticket kiosks are being rolled out by Amtrak in the Northeast Corridor that will eventually be installed throughout its system.
In a news release, Amtrak said the kiosks contain “an updated user interface consistent with other Amtrak digital channels that allows for a minimum-touch experience for the most common in-station transactions.”
Passengers will be able to activate the kiosks by touch, card swipe, barcode scan, or inserting a headset.
The kiosks are 48 inches tall, ADA compliant and eventually will be set up for contactless payment and the sending of tickets to a passenger’s email address.
In time Amtrak said it will install more than 200 of the kiosks at more than 150 stations. They will replace Quick-Trak machines that have been in service for almost two decades.
