BSP ONElink Puts Rail Companies on Track to Travel Agents.

Business Editors/Travel Writers

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 9, 2003

BSP ONElink, Inc. (OTCBB:BSPO) continues to attract key players to its revolutionary electronic booking, billing and settlement system for the $4 trillion travel and tourism industry, with U.K.-based distributor The Train Chartering Company Ltd. the latest company to come on board.

Train Chartering works with such well-known luxury trains as the Orient Express, the Royal Scotsman, the Royal Orient in India, the Blue Train of Africa and the Rocky Mountaineer in western Canada, as well as local trains and private carriages for corporate and social events. In addition to these super-luxury and specialty trains, Train Chartering, through the BSP ONElink service, will provide the small and mid-sized railroad companies around the world with unique on-line access to the 55,000 travel agencies accredited by the International Air Transport Association (IATA).

"The 21st century is witnessing the renaissance of rail, as business travellers and tourists discover the convenience and benefits of trains. As interest in rail travel grows, so also does the fascination with tourist and luxury trains. However, both scheduled and special trains need an effective distribution and settlement channel to the travel agents, which only BSP Onelink offers," said Roger Emsley, BSP Onelink's Managing Director.

"We cannot overstate the positive impact this agreement will have on travel agents, rail companies and their customers," said Bill Guerin, chairman and chief executive officer of BSP ONElink. "It will be the first time that such a range of trains worldwide will be bookable by all IATA agents, thus adding real value to both their bottom line and the travel experience."

"Last year," continued Guerin, "the IATA-accredited travel agencies booked over 300 million airline tickets. BSP Onelink is bringing new sources of income to these travel agents with the first integrated, Internet-based booking and payment service for non-airline products that assures travel agents of commissions paid upfront in their local currency, and provides travel suppliers with a new distribution channel and guaranteed payment in their local currency as well."

Among the types of rail companies that will benefit are tourist trains, rail tours, historic steam railways and attractions. BSP ONElink, through Train Chartering and other distributors, will also help those rail suppliers without fully developed and widely marketed websites with online booking, as well as entrepreneurs and organizers wishing to run special trains for particular events. All these clients will enjoy expanded marketing of their products as well as improved cash flow through electronic payment, while travel agents will now have on-line access to a diverse choice of products, providing greater value to their customers.

"Train Chartering is delighted to be working closely with BSP ONElink in offering its services to rail companies, thus acting as a major catalyst for the evolution of their businesses," said Fay Lejeune, Train Chartering's operations director. "We will be evangelical in our enthusiasm for BSP ONElink, urging rail companies worldwide to bring their trains to the global market through IATA travel agents."

"Train Chartering is the first rail distributor offering this service, but we expect others to see the opportunity in the coming months," said Guerin. "The rail industry's global distribution channels are currently underdeveloped, with smaller companies being particularly disadvantaged. BSP ONElink's agreement with Train Chartering is an important step forward in raising the profile and profitability of global train travel."

Train Chartering (www.trainchartering.com) is a pioneer of a coordinated approach to sourcing, customization and crewing of special trains for corporate and upscale private events.
