Necessity for Updating TrainEnquiry.com Website
By this time you all know it that currently TrainEnquiry.com is the official online interface for finding Indian Railway’s train related information such as online railway timetable for Indian Railways, running train time table, train arrivals, train departures, train late info etc. For its endeavors by the Indian Railways, earlier, Enhanced National Train Enquiry System (Indian Railways) has won National Award for e-Governance 2010-2011 for Innovative use of ICT by PSUs for customer’s benefits. But due to latest technological changes and growing internet users in India, customer’s expectations are increased to a great extent. Common people wanted simple, fast and better interface for knowing current train running information.

The new train enquiry beta site is rocking, awesome. The searching of trains has been made easiest ever interface. In no time I found my train name. I think, first time, railway enquiry website is making use of AJAX based technique to speed up the response time for searching trains. This way the arrival of result is almost instantly.
But, the only thing I disliked is that new train enquiry website provides current train running status for a train for previous and next two stoppages only. In my opinion, they should give option to view train running status for all the stoppages like source station, destination station and all the intermediate stations. Actually in previous train enquiry website this facility was available to get a full chart for viewing running train status.
The feedback page of new train enquiry dont confirm us if the feedback entered is successfully saved in the database of train enquiry website.
It is shit that complete information you cant get all train arriving & depoarture to the station passing for next 24 hours....
as frequent traveller has to waste time in this.....
Nice tips to share to know about train tracking in simple way.Thanks.
Travelers can make use of remaining time for other tasks,when info about train arr/dep is tracked and known.
It was very helpful article about train enquiry. You have solved many problems with it. Many Thanks.
n the older version it was easy to track the train with respect to the boarding station as to what should be the expected time of arrival...what time the train has left the station even in case of 8-9hrs before...but the new site provide info of specific location not in old relative way,,,
Really such a nice info about train enquiry. I liked it and bookmarked for my future references.
Thanks for sharing!
