to support with longest night train route in the EU
- Increased
capacity, improved passenger experience
Swedish open-access rail operator Snälltåget has announced
that it will be implementing S3 Passenger, the dynamic pricing, inventory management,
and reservation system offered by Sqills, a Siemens Mobility
subsidiary. Snälltåget
and Sqills have opted for a phased approach in terms of
implementation: The Swedish operator will benefit from a short time-to-market

Snälltåget will be using from the start is the support for cross-operator
cooperation as a way for providing through tickets. This will further improve
passenger comfort when booking long-
distance trips. S3 Passenger is based on the
Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) model and is part of the open, digital business
platform, Siemens Xcelerator, that enables customers to accelerate their
digital transformation easier,
faster and at scale.
