RailMitra Feature Spotlight: Live Train Schedule at Your Fingertips
Checking train timetable

Travelling by train in India? Whether you're a daily commuter or an occasional traveller, staying updated with the live train schedule can make all the difference. In a country where trains connect the most remote villages to the busiest cities, timing is everything.

That’s why RailMitra has introduced a powerful, real-time feature that keeps train information at your fingertips—literally. With just a few taps, you can check train timings, platform numbers, and delays using RailMitra’s live schedule tool. It’s designed for smart travellers who want to stay ahead, save time, and avoid stress.

Why a Live Train Schedule Matters

Indian Railways operates over 13,000 passenger trains every day. While it’s an impressive network, it also means frequent:

  • Delays due to congestion or weather

  • Platform changes at major stations

  • Last-minute rescheduling of routes or times

Relying on printed timetables or asking around at stations is no longer efficient. A live train schedule helps you travel smarter.

RailMitra’s Live Train Schedule: What It Offers

The train schedule feature on RailMitra is more than just a timetable. It offers:

Real-Time Updates with NTES Accuracy

RailMitra is synced with NTES (National Train Enquiry System)—the official source of Indian Railways data. This means:

  • You get live updates

  • Know about any rescheduling instantly

  • Get accurate arrival and departure times

Platform Number Predictions

Avoid the chaos of last-minute announcements at busy stations. RailMitra gives you the expected platform number so you can reach the right place in time.

Live Delay Tracking

Check how late your train is running and adjust your journey accordingly. This feature is helpful whether you’re boarding a train or receiving someone at the station.

Schedule by Train or Station

You can search by entering the train name/number or even by station. This flexibility helps you plan better—whether you're boarding from a major junction or a small town.
