A Travel Safe staff member borded a train on the way to Richmond today, common enough, nothing new there.
He got to the end of the train and seemed to "scan" the carriage number printed high up next to the dot matrix display by pressing his mobile phone against it.
What on earth? How could a mobile phone, (perhaps a camera phone?) read the carriage number when pressed against it and why would he want this anyway? Surely if anything he might like to record the train unit number he was on not the carriage number?
Very odd indeed, certainly confused the passengers.
