Kolkata or the “City of Joy” has many interesting facets which you will never find in any other Indian state - its happy going people, its food and grand monuments from the British era. But Kolkata is well known for yet another thing – the Metro Railways. It was the first city to have underground metro railways construction. Metro services in Kolkata were launched way back in 1984 and their primary objective was to take some load off the roads. The heart of Kolkata is not that well connected with conventional railways, and the metro railways filled in the void aptly. In the early days it served as an attraction for the tourists and occasional riders. But today it has become the most prominent form of transportation in the city.
There are many commuters who just cannot do without the Kolkata metro railways. Office goers, school/college students, businessmen and people from various other walks of life depend heavily on the metro railways. It is no wonder then that Kolkata Metro Railways has a staggering ridership of 6.5 million people daily! But, even simple information about Kolkata Metro’s such as train running status and trains between two stations was not available on the digital medium. This was a cause of pain for the daily commuters and ones who prefer metro railways.
Though Metro Railways runs trains with short time gaps, but still when you are in a hurry, even 5 minutes’ delay can be a cause of concern. This is why passengers wanted to have a time table of trains on the digital medium which they can carry with them. RailYatri has been hearing about these grievances of passengers and have acted in accordance. The app now includes time table and running information of all metro trains in Kolkata.
· Download the RailYatri app from Google Play Store by using the link:RailYatri Indian Rail, Metros or give a missed call on: 8080809551.
· On the Home Screen itself there is an option for “Local/Metro Trains”, select this option.
· Next screen that opens will have two tabs – Local and Metro, select “Metro”.
· Then enter the intended on boarding and off boarding stations in their relevant boxes and hit “Go”.
· Screen that opens will carry a detailed listing of train time table.
This feature makes RailYatri not only a useful app for the long distance passengers, but local ones as well. Apart from Kolkata, metro railways train running status and trains between two stations is available for Delhi and Jaipur.
If you so long thought of RailYatri as a live train status app or PNR status enquiry app, then you have largely underestimated the power of this app. These are two basic functions of the app, apart from which RailYatri has a wide spectrum of options. Download this app today, to explore a range of possibilities with Indian rail travel.
