SNCF has deployed a mobile solution that allows SNCF passengers in Paris and the greater Ile de France region to access real-time train schedules using any mobile device. The Infogare project, which was developed and deployed in less than four months, provides information on arrival and departures, train platforms and travel interruptions for 171 regional railway stations. Infogare is SNCF's first official WAP and I-mode service.

SNCF had already operated a highly successful online travel information portal, which provides rail users with a host of travel information via a PC. Recognizing that PC-based information offered limited benefits to passengers on the move, SNCF sought to enhance their passengers' travel experience by making real-time travel information accessible from any mobile device.

Accessing the Infogare service is as easy as entering a single URL - http://infogare.transilien.com - into a mobile phone. Schedule and platform information, as well as information on the next six trains arriving or departing from that station are then presented to commuters.
