Travellers can simply enter their station/train/journey/PNR details on their mobile phone and the system will display alerts relevant to the user. Railways are running over 90 special trains from Delhi this festive season, 67 from Mumbai, 61 from Patna, 46 from Kolkata and 55 special trains from Lucknow.
There is also a special feature for regular commuters to specify their regular routes and view alerts on their way, said Manish Rathi of Railyatri.in.
NRAS includes a comprehensive database of major events which generates heavy rush at specific locations and warns users in advance if their travel takes them through one or more locations.
