   RAM INVESTMENT GROUP'S OPERATING SUBSIDIARY, TRAINFX LIMITED, ACHIEVES KEY 
                                MILESTONE SUCCESS 
                          ("TrainFX" or the "Company") 
 
THE FIRST TRAIN IS NOW IN SERVICE WITH THE ADVANCED PASSENGER INFORMATION SYSTEM 
OF TRAINFX. ANOTHER 56 TO BE INSTALLED BY YEAR END. 
 
 
The first Class 165 Unit has been fitted with the new TrainFX Advanced Passenger 
Information System and is now fully operational and running in passenger 
service. 
 
The Client is First Great Western whose passengers will now enjoy a significant 
improvement in on-board information due to the removal of the previous obsolete 
system and the replacement with the TrainFX "state of the art" on-board 
information system. 
 
This system has been constructed in accordance with the new European standards. 
It provides real time information both to and from the train, enabling First 
Great Western the ability to communicate with passengers in real time, ensuring 
they are fully aware of any journey disruptions on route and on connecting 
routes. 
 
The train is the first of 57 (Class 165 and 166 Turbo trains) that are to have 
the new passenger information system fitted. The remaining 56 trains are planned 
to be fitted and in service by December 2010, operating on the London and Thames 
Valley routes. 
 
TrainFX Managing Director Phil Campbell said: "I am delighted to see this first 
unit go into service and look forward to the remaining units being completed by 
the end of 2010." 
 
"This is an excellent 'high profile' reference that allows our client, their 
passengers and the rail sector in general, to see the benefits of our system in 
service operation". 
 
Executive Chairman of RAM Investment Group plc Tim Baldwin comments: 
 
"This is a milestone event for TrainFX. Since acquisition the Company has moved 
from a research and development business to a company delivering and installing 
new products on trains. We are excited about the potential for this business, in 
the markets it is addressing. The validation of its product in a real 
environment should help secure a substantial pipeline of further contracts."
