5 Curiosities you can find Answers to in the RailYatri App

Modern day passengers are unlike the passengers of the yesteryears. They are more curious. Everything they see poses a question in their minds and they start seeking answers to it. In a way this curiosity has been brought about by the free-flow of information environment that the World Wide Web presents. There is answer to every weird or enthusiastic query on this medium. But sadly, Indian Railways is not an organization that provides or practices the policy of free-flow of information. There are important pieces of information that are not available for the passengers. So, the curiosities of the modern day passengers went unanswered so far. There is fine difference between curiosity and necessity. The necessary information is available in Railways managed websites and other live train status apps. But none of them bother to answer the curious questions. Yes, you will find key information related to pnr status, train between two stations, arrival and departure of trains, etc. But are these the only information the present day passengers seek? Not at all, they deserve and crave for more intuitive information. This is what RailYatri app offers to their users, apart from the basic functionalities mentioned above.

 

How RailYatri Meets Your Curiosities?

You are not satisfied just viewing the Placard proclaiming the name of the station. You want to know the titbits around the station. You are eager to understand what the station is famous for, what is the history of the station and other such facts. You can learn about these by simply visiting the Rail Wisdom section of our app.

3.     Judge the Speed of Train: Passengers are very curious to learn this fact. They always feel that the train is running slow. So, why not use the Speedometer option present in the app. The app uses your GPS to judge how fast the train is moving and gives a rating that is clear to understand. You can learn about the exact speed of the train using this feature.

4.     Top Passenger Routes: If you thought that maximum people in a train travel from the source station to destination station, then this myth is about to be busted.
