Heritage Railways

Your Complete Solution

With the ability to bolt on to your existing website, or incorporate your design as an all-in-one system, our extensive features should mean this is the only information and advance booking system you’ll ever need.

Complete Information Export Facility

If you need to us booking or customer information elsewhere our powerful export routine allows you to select any field from any booking and export it to a variety of formats such as standard Excel spreadsheets. From here you can produce your own statistics and bespoke reports on ticket sales.

Instant System Reports

Check the status of any event ticket sales online any time. There are several standard system reports but if you have a specific requirement we can always accomodate.

Multiple Dates, Multiple Start Times

You can have single or multi-date events with multiple services running each day and multiple ticket types (Adult,Child,Concession etc). You can even have multiple start points for each service if you like.

SMS Bulletins (proposed 2011)

Send instant SMS text messages to the mobile phones of everyone who’s booked for your event. Very useful in the case of late changes to arrangements, traffic incidents or parking restrictions.

Automatic Search Engine Optimisation

Our system is designed from the ground up to be easily indexed by search engines so you’ll find yourself rising to the top sooner than you think.

Dining Trains

Select menus while ordering

For your Dining Train offerings you can include a sample menu for information or, if your patrons are required to choose their menu prior to the event they can do this while booking. We setup all the menus for you on the system and you can run a report anytime you need showing the number of bookings for each service and the chosen menu for each diner and summary totals for each course to give to the chefs.

In addition you can also pre-sell wine, gifts or even a rose for the table.

Built-in email newsletter system

The system collects email addresses from interested subscribers so you can quickly create a great looking email newsletter with our built-in module and send it to your mailing list - FREE.

Mobile / iPhone Site Versions

Mobile browsing will be as widely used as desktop by 2013 so we make sure you’re ready now with stripped down versions of your site just for tiny screens.

Integrated Online Shop

The system comes with a powerful online shopping module so you can sell souvenirs and related merchandise to your customers too.

Payments taken instantly online and in your bank within 3 days.

No more waiting until after your event has taken place to receive your ticket revenue. Use your own credit card merchant account to receive payments for ticket sales directly and quickly, improving your cashflow. If you don’t have a credit card merchant account we can help you get one, or if you like we can sell the tickets for you.

Add-on to your existing information website or we can give you a completely new one.

We’ll make the booking system look just like the rest of your site. Alternatively work with our designers for a completely new site to incorporate all your visitor information, news items and booking system in one.

Your own branded tickets or ‘E-Ticket’ option

We can provide your very own branded thermal tickets designed to your specifications and we even give you a ticket printer if you’re printing and posting your own tickets. A popular option is also to have a branded ticket wallet which holds the tickets in place for posting, ensuring the address is visible in windowed envelopes which we also provide.

Seat Allocation Module

NEW FOR 2010

If you run events which require specific seats to be allocated such as Santa Specials or Dining, you probably have an eloborate paper-based system or perhaps a spreadsheet to do the job. This is extremely time-consuming and laborious for the poor soul(s) tasked with it.

Now you can let your customers book tickets for these events online and use our powerful administration system to see which bookings require seats allocating and then do so quickly and easily. Seat allocations are then printed onto the tickets.

Events Listed For You

We provide a managed service, creating all your events for you on the system.

This is based on our belief that you need to concentrate on running the events and services and keeping the customers happy. All we need are the dates, services running per day, ticket types and prices and any other special considerations and we’ll set them up ready to go.

This doesn’t mean that we can’t add features afterwards of course such as promotions or conditions, plus you can change any text or images on the event page yourself any time you want.
