This present invention is directed to an electronic passenger management system and its corresponding techniques that can be applied to railroad passenger cars/long-distance buses. The system mainly consists of the following parts: an electronic ticket checking machine, a passenger information display device, a passenger management server and database, a computer workstation, and an electronic ticket reader. The computer network connects passenger management server with the electronic ticket checking machine, the passenger information display device, and the computer workstation. This system can be used to check tickets, assign seats, remind passengers of the arrival of destination, display names of destination, change seats, help passengers to purchase tickets on the spot, conduct data enquiries and statistical analyses. This present invention can redress the unsymmetrical status that widely exists between the advanced railroad system/long-distance bus system and the traditional method of requiring conductors to provide manual information to passengers and to replace the old traditional passive passenger information system with the advanced active electronic passenger management system, resulting in further improvement of passenger management and information levels in railroad trains/long-distance buses for their passengers.
