Railway's Yatri App
The Central Railway has urged commuters to use the YATRI app which is the first official local railways app that provides regular and timely live updates of the trains running through the rainy tracks.
Through the app, trains delayed or cancelled due to monsoon are immediately notified to the users. It also suggests alternative routes and trains in case one way is obstructed by the rain.
Through the app’s various features, Mumbaikars can smartly plan their journey and avoid crowding at the stations. YATRI administers all the news, information and announcements straight from the Railway Control Room.
