Train destination alarm call for railway passengers
Posted on: 28/Jul/2015 11:28:50 AM
Now train passengers can sleep peacefully without worrying about the destination they should alight. Railways have now launched a new service which will ensure that they get a "wake-up call" on their mobile phones half-an-hour before the scheduled arrival at their destination.
Similarly, another feature - ``train destination alarm call` - has also been introduced through which passengers will get an alert call 30 minutes before the train reaches their destination station. The service, a joint initiative of the IRCTC and Bharat BPO, is available through voice call on Railways enquiry number 139.
The user needs to enter the required data such as PNR number, station name, STD code of station while calling up 139 for getting the wake-up alarm.
Wake-up alarm shall be made to the passenger 30 minutes before the train reaches the station. Similarly, the train destination alert call shall also be available 30 minutes before train reaches the destination station
