To spot a running train is easier now

The transportation has huge effect on the society and economy of the country. The first sign of a developed country is high level of quality connectivity to different areas of the nation. In India also, there are numerous means of transportation for public, which include railway, roadway and airway. The airway as well as roadway has limited connectivity compared to the wide network of the railway. Hence, since a number of years, the Indian Railways has been a leader in the public transportation but until last few decades public was not much in favor of it. The reasons were very simple. The trains were dirty and the platforms were also not much comfortable. The trains were also running late and there was hardly any system to know the status of the train. But, in last few years, the Department of Railways has worked efficiently and changed its image completely which made it most preferred way of travel these days.

The changes with technology:

These changes in the railway were much because of modern technology that is adopted by the railway department. There are numerous technologies which are used for booking of ticket, tracking a train and checking the availability of seats. In these days, to spot the train is very simple. One can check the website of the railway and check if the seats are available on a particular day in a particular train. Just a few steps can be enough to decide if one would be able to have the ticket and travel on a particular date. To spot a running train is also easy.

How to spot the train?

To track a train, one can have two options. He can check the same on the website of railway or can check the same on a smartphone with the help of an application. In case he goes with the website, he needs to go to the field where spot the train is titled. One just needs to enter the name or number of the train and date. In just a blink of eye, you can get the exact status of the train.

Same way while using the application also, one need to enter the data i.e. name or number of the train and in some time the status of the train is provided on the screen of the phone. However, in case of computer or a smartphone, the internet connectivity has to be there. The status of the train offers a number of information such as last station the train had attended, time of the train when it had arrived at that station, the time of departure, next station and the time it will reach at the final destination.
