Summary

Since the beginning of 2018, Aspect Installations have been committed to installing a range of wall mounted screens across the Crossrail network on behalf of Worldline Digital Self Service Group. These are designed to provide concise train departure information for rail users.

Background

The ‘Wonderwall’ project was Worldline’s first foray into a purely digitized Customer Information Service. MTR Crossrail had already worked with Worldline who supplied them the Ticket Vending Machines across their network and now committed to the installation of this new product in their ticket halls.

For Worldline, installation of this type was new territory. Ranging between 42” (48kg) and 55” (75kg) wall mounted panels, the screens are weighty pieces of hardware designed specifically for Rail and Transport environments. As such, Aspect were brought in to help find the best delivery and installation solution.
