I remember when the old Millbrae station was the destination for our Xmas tree my auntie Bonnie sent to us from Trukkee, from the Sierras, in those old Steam Locomotives... memory lane,; how often I road THAT road, you see, 101. I recall the view too... what a trip! haha! thanks!
Washington DC/Metro Trains runs similar to BART trains in computerized tickets. Unlike BART, there is a Day Ticket option which for a flat fee can ride unlimited until end of service.
Thanks PatrickTomaszewski10, Not surprised here, BART is great. I remember when its stations had computer-terminals where one could check news, weather, biorhythm, sports, etc. They were discontinued about the time of the recession, I know many businesses were closed permanently.
BART has always been ahead of most train-systems, if not all; in 85 when I first got on BART, computerized tickets were already in use. I would not be surprised if BART was computerized since its beginning in 73.
Yeah, those flat fee tickets are great. If BART does not have those; too bad. In any case, I remember BART having affordable fees, compared to relative crappy trains like the Long Island Rail Road In New York.

That's nice, I always ride BART from Fremont to Oakland City Center 12th ST or Montgomery St. Station (used to).

BART was fully computerized when it opened from the beginning. It was showcased WorldWide at the time.
