Subtitle: 118 almex.station conform to the latest EU TSI standard

Hanover/Germany, 26/08/2010. (euro adhoc) - Following a Europe-wide invitation
for tenders, DSB (Danske Statsbaner (Danish State Railways)) has again opted for
Hoeft & Wessel´ stationary ticket vending machines (TVM). The Almex business
division of the German IT and Engineering Group for ticketing, parking and
mobile solutions will be supplying a total of 118 almex.station TVM´s and
installing them at railway stations in Denmark. DSB previously bought TVM´s from
Hoeft & Wessel in 2004. Together with the new order, a total of around 300
stationary TVM´s will be in operation at DSB.

The TVM´s conform to the latest requirements of the European Union (EU)
regarding ease of use especially for persons with restricted mobility. The TSI
standard - the technical specification for inter-operability - defines and,
therefore, standardises the arrangement of operating functions. The new TVM´s

be possible to pay with banknotes and to receive change in the form of
banknotes
