Now that I think about, SF MUNI would probably have been a better example than Caltrain as they have *exactly* the same system where you can buy a ticket on an app, activate it before boarding, and then simply show the app if they asked to see your ticket. My 70 year old parents had no issues using this when they were in SF last year, so I'm sure they wouldn't have issues using the BART version either.
