Travelling by trains winding through green fields and scenic landscapes is a memorable experience. However, train delays and rescheduling often spoil the fun of your journey.

Fortunately, railways platforms like RailMitra made things easy with their ‘Spot your train’ feature. With this feature you can easily track train timings and stay ahead of any changes.

Understanding Spot Your Train

Spot your train is a service with which you can track your train’s current station. This service is very helpful when someone from our family asks or we need to find ‘where is my train’.

What is Spot your train?

‘Spot your train’ or your train’s current station is one of the information you get when you check your live train running status. With live train status you can also track your train’s arrival/departure time, delays, before time arrivals, halt duration, duration of the journey and the platform of arrival.

Different Services available with RailMitra

RailMitra’s offerings of services aren't just limited to live train running status. Here are some of the other free services available for general use of the public:

PNR Number Check

PNR Number Check is a service that helps us track our booking status. When we book a ticket with Indian railways we are provided with a booking status which can be Confirmed (CNF), Reservation Against Cancellation (RAC), Waiting List (WL), etc.

We are also provided with a 10-digit unique PNR (Passenger Name Record) Number. A PNR Number Check provides real time status of our booking which is vital for WL status. WL number decreases if some of the CNF tickets are cancelled. 

PNR Number Check tracks the development and helps WL ticket holders with confirmation chances.

Train Time Table

Train time table helps us track train timings. However, unlike live train status, the train time table’s train timing is not updated in real time and is static in nature. 

Train time table is often called the official time table.With this service we can compare the trains for any journey and come up with the best possible option.

Conclusion

Fluctuations in the timings of the train can be a reason for stress. Platform changes and delays can be tough for passengers.

But with a railway platform like RailMitra it is very easy to spot your train. Explore the range of services available at RailMitra along with a surprise option of ordering restaurant style food on the train.
