Una nueva aplicación mira hacia el futuro con motivo del 150.º aniversario del ferrocarril Settle Carlisle
Con motivo del 150.º aniversario de la línea Settle Carlisle, lanzamos una nueva aplicación digital gratuita, Traxplorer, para guiar a los pasajeros a lo largo de uno de los trayectos en tren más pintorescos de Europa.
Traxplorer es una aplicación de viajes que hace que los viajes en tren sean más divertidos e informativos, ya que ofrece información sobre lo que se puede ver desde la ventanilla del tren, además de horarios de trenes en tiempo real, datos históricos sobre las líneas y guías de estaciones fáciles de usar. La aplicación también incluirá los horarios en los que estará disponible a bordo el servicio de carrito de la empresa Settle Carlisle Railway Development Company, así como detalles sobre los refrigerios disponibles.
Además, ofrece juegos relacionados con los viajes, que incluyen logros, tablas de clasificación y contenido desbloqueable para fomentar la exploración y la interacción con la red ferroviaria. Y para celebrar Halloween habrá un reto de búsqueda de calabazas, con calabazas virtuales a lo largo de la línea que se pueden encontrar en Traxplorer.
Los pasajeros pueden iniciar sesión en cualquier punto de la línea, coleccionar postales digitales de cada estación visitada y conocer los puntos de interés a lo largo de su ruta.
La aplicación gratuita Traxplorer ya está disponible para su descarga en Google Play y en la Apple Store, y se seguirán añadiendo más actividades, eventos e información, por lo que siempre habrá algo nuevo que descubrir.
