Every feature in RailTarang solves an everyday hassle passengers face inside Indian train coaches.
Offline GPS Inside Coaches
When the coach cuts off mobile data, RailTarang stays fully operational. Satellite GPS coordinates and cell-tower triangulation track your train speed, upcoming halts, and intermediate crossings without active internet.
Railway Mobile Signal Heatmap
India's first crowd-sourced network coverage map along rail tracks. View upcoming signal strength for Jio, Airtel, Vi, and BSNL. Know exactly when you will have high-speed 4G/5G data before making urgent calls or taking meetings.
Smart Station Arrival Alarms
Sleep peacefully during overnight journeys. Set location-based wake-up alarms for your destination or deboarding station. RailTarang rings reliably 10-15 minutes prior, even if your train is delayed or early.
100% Intermediate Passing Stations
Other train apps hide intermediate stations. RailTarang gives you every minor passing station, junction, loop line, and river crossing on a proportional distance-based timeline, complete with real-time platform numbers.
On-Seat Food on Track
Order fresh, hygienic meals delivered directly to your train coach and berth. RailTarang identifies upcoming stations with verified halt times and connects you directly to official IRCTC e-Catering & partner restaurants.
Privacy & Zero Battery Drain
No phone number required, no OTP wall, and no invasive tracking. RailTarang uses an ultra-fast local SQLite database that opens instantly, without draining your phone's battery while running in the background.
🍽️ Food on Track (e-Catering)
Hungry on the Train?

Smart 45–60 Minute Advance Alerts: Order in advance while signal is strong so partner restaurants have hot food packed when the train arrives.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything You Need to Know
Common questions answered about RailTarang's offline tracking, network maps, and features.
Does RailTarang work inside the train without internet?
Yes. RailTarang has an offline GPS engine. While you are inside a moving train, the app uses your phone's built-in GPS and cell tower signals along with a locally cached offline track database to calculate your exact location and speed without needing mobile data.
How does the Mobile Network Signal Map work?
RailTarang gathers anonymous cellular signal strength readings reported by passengers along rail tracks. These are compiled into track-side signal heatmaps for Jio, Airtel, Vi, and BSNL, allowing you to see upcoming dead-zones in advance.
How do I order food to my train seat?
In the route timeline, stations with scheduled halts of 2+ minutes show a "Food" badge. Tapping it opens direct links to official IRCTC e-Catering and RailRestro with your train number prefilled so you can select fresh food delivered to your coach.
How reliable are the Station Arrival Alarms?
RailTarang uses location geofencing rather than simple clock alarms. Even if your train is running 2 hours late or 20 minutes early, the alarm will ring based on actual geographic distance (e.g., 10 km before your station) so you never miss your stop.
Is RailTarang available on both iPhone and Android?
Yes. RailTarang is available as a native app on both the Apple App Store for iOS devices and the Google Play Store for Android phones.
Does RailTarang collect any personal data?
No. RailTarang does not require login, phone numbers, or passwords. Your journey tracking stays on your device, and crowd-sourced signal telemetry is completely anonymized.
