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," a senior Railway Ministry official said.
According to the official, after getting all the inputs like PNR and station name on 139, the system will check current position of the train before sending the alert call.
