Konkan Railway’s Mobile App Launched

In its endeavour to provide value-added services to its customers, Konkan Railway has launched a Mobile App on Google Play Store which will enable the passengers to access various train-related features on their mobile phone. The App can be downloaded and installed on Android and Blackberry Smart phones. Since a large populace uses Smart Phones these days, the App is a step forward in improving services for our passengers.

Presumably the first Mobile App for train services by any zonal railway, this Mobile App has been developed in-house by Konkan Railway Information Technology cell. It will allow the passengers to not only check the time-table of trains running via Konkan Railway route, but also give current status of trains on the route. So, no more need to dial any train enquiry number while travelling on Konkan Railway.


The App will also enable access to Konkan Railway’s website and let you enjoy the photo gallery of Konkan Railway’s journey from inception to various cultural, sports and social activities carried out by KRCL.
 
The App is now published on Google Play Store at following link :
