We live in an age of information flow. Information is
readily available about everything, whenever and wherever needed. Though trains
are the preferred mode of transportation for Indians, yet train enquiry
by Indian
Railways app fails to meet the curiosity of their regular passengers.
In this age, every traveller has the right to learn about his/her location when
travelling. But the rail running schedule is updated only when a train reaches a
major station. There is no way to learn the exact location of the train
anywhere between two major stations.
RailYatri is making an effort
to bridge this information gap with their app that is now available on all
three platforms of Android, Windows and i-tunes. This smart rail travel app
gives many unique information and insights that make the travels safer and
hassle free. RailYatri can be considered a well thought out live
train status app. When a passenger is travelling on a train there is an
array of questions that run through the mind. The questions such as – How far
have I travelled? How far am I from the destination? How late is my train?
Which stations are upcoming? All these questions are relevant and their answers
lie in the proper tracking of train running status. With the RailYatri app
you can find accurate answers to all these queries along with various other
insights.
There is also an option in this live train status app, whereby you can share your
exact location information to friends and relatives using messenger app –
WhatsApp. So, your relatives or friends can stay updated and need not worry
when you are travelling. Another impressive feature of this app is: you need
not be on a particular train to view its live train running status on mobile.
