Train Live Status:
This feature has now been enhanced to show the entire running status timetable on Google Maps for actual Departure Dates. The "Departure buttons" are available for valid departure dates, for which live running status can be ascertained. For example, a daily train that completes its journey in 2 days will have two valid departure dates - today and yesterday. A weekly train departing on Mondays, which completes its journey in 2 days will not have any departure button, since the train would already have arrived at its destination yesterday, and there are no more departures till next Monday.
Clicking...
more... on any station in the timetable will pop up that station on Google Maps showing actual arrival and departure dates along with the actual dates.
The train position is available on the map, as well as in the timetable list - between the last departure and next arrival stations.
Also, we are trying to show the State that the train is travelling through along with the Railway zone.
Some errors and bugs may be expected, and we shall be refining and enhancing this feature in the coming days.
Upcoming enhancements: Complete historical timetable on Google Maps, for any given departure date. Ability to add multiple trains to the map, and see the relative position of these trains on the map. The Arrival/Departure lists on the Home Page will also be enhanced.
Thanks.
