train running status 2021

 There are lots of mobile apps in the market to check current running status of Indian trains. Some apps are providing correct live running status to spot the train but poor in additional services, on the other hand some app are providing the consumer a smooth experience to check or find the live running status of the train upon train enquiry with additional benefit, which will surely give some added advantage to the passenger. After thorough research, we have come up with 4 apps that is the best app currently available to know the running status of the train. Lets discuss the advantages & disadvantages of the apps.


1)NTES ( National train enquiry system)-


Downlod this app- NTES By Indian Railway (android app store)

                               NTES By Indian Railway (apple app store)

NTES is one of the best app in the market is developed by CRIS( Centre for Railway Information System) to check true and authentic train running status.
This app has been downloaded by more than 10 million people.


Advantages:-


  • This app is promoted by the Indian railway. Therefore, there will be very less chance for any data error. Legitimacy of this app is way above comparing to the other app. In other app, you may loose your train due to wrong data but  in this app the possibility of getting wrong information become infinitely small.

  • You can also know the cancelled or diverted or rescheduled trains in this app. So, it is an additional benefit.

Disadvantages :

  • The layout of this app is very boaring. In addition to that, the app is not very easy to use. for instance, the elder person like our grandfather or grandmother who are not very comfortable with smartphone may find difficulty to use this app. It is also not show you platform number directly to the running status page. You have to go to the "live station" option to find out the platform no. So basically the app is hovering you from one place to other for small information.


  • Another problem of this app is lots of  advertisement in the app. Although, advertisements are well placed in this app but still it may annoy you will using the app. It would have been great if the number of the advertisement become less.

  • There is no alarm clock to help you to wake up or alert you before the station.

  • It is really difficult to find out the running status history in this app to configure how much the train may late. Yes, it is the another con of this app. I don't understand why don't they provide this thing in this app. It may surely help the passenger.

  • It also does not show stations between the platform. Actually when train is going to stop at the main station, it passes by mini stations. So if there is any option to see the mini station between the platform it become easy to know that how many stations are left to arrive the main station. Many other apps are providing this service. So, it is an another down side of this app.

  • Another drawback is to see the history of train status, you have to input all days in the date option. Basically, it increases the time to see the running status history of the app.

  • It saves  almost all the train name or number which you recently searched in this app. This usually reduce your time to select or choose the train.

  • Another advantage is, it shows "Wi-Fi" enabled stations. Sometime trains halt in a station for long time. While the train wait in the station you may try to check, this station is "Wi-Fi" enabled or not, to use the free internet provided by the Indian railway. Actually who does not want to enjoy the free things. LOL.

NTES developed by Railway is great app but lack some usability issue whereas, the other apps lacks in legitimacy issue. It would have been great if the trust of railway tie up with the other app so that the timing as well as the usability and additional features may enjoyed by the passengers.
