The Swiss Federal Railways SBB FFS and the company INTECH-ICS AG have been working for years on new locker facilities for public transport customers. The latest locker system is now located at the Montreux train station on track 1.
Customers can deposit their luggage - whether small or large bags - centrally at the station (near the elevator). The lockers are controlled centrally via a pay station. In addition, specially designed lighting with pigeon protection is used.
It accepts the most common CHF coins and credit cards. A great advantage is that the lockers work without a key. A receipt is issued with a QR code that allows the selected locker to be reopened.
If a ticket is lost, it is not necessary to change the lock. SBB staff on site can print out a duplicate for a fee, so that the customer can collect his luggage.
