Indian Railways is gearing up the IT infrastructure of it’s facilities big-time. Its Online Website is one of the most busiest websites in India and they have such a powerful architecture that we'll hardly see a downtime in the Online Services.

From Web World, Indian Railways has now stepped into some real ground-level IT implementation in their Facilities by launching a free wi-fi Internet service in the Mysore Railway Station making it the first Indian Railway station to have such facilities.

So users, what more technological developments would you like to see in Indian railways?

Wi fi services

idea posted by Nirmal Karan Product/Brand Manager, KingfisherAirlines

Wi fi facility, which has been introduced in Mysore, should be introduced in other parts of India also. This service would be a boon to the travellers who travel from one corner of India to another and help India to grow its tourism market and make foreign investments occur in India

Add your argument:

Ultramodern Signal Systems

Signal system is the main hindrance in increasing the average speed of trains. Latest Automatic signal systems, will significantly improve the speed, reduce the commuting time as well as increase the safety multifold.

Speed and Safety

idea posted by Vivek Singh Project Manager, L&T

Better tracks, better engines so as to ensure on time delivery with highest standards of safety. That is the prime thing which our railway has still not achieved satisfactorily.Other facilities are secondary.

When I pay more for a Rajdhani Express or Shatabdi Express it is primarily to reach my home faster and not for the food served and the mannerism of catering staff or telephone or internet or mobile charging points etc.

Kiosk ticketing

Indian Railway should introduce the facility of smart cards for passengers who travel frequently via Indian Railways. With these smart cards, customers can buy tickets at kiosks. This will be very helpful for them.

Use of tech for common man

idea posted by Nilesh Jain Project Manager, A Leading Media/Telecom Co.

I feel, success of technological development / inventions shall be measured in terms of usefulness to the society.

Inventions will keep going on, but unless we make a use of it for uplifting of the society, inventions may be futile.

Inrastructure & Security

1) High Class Infrastructure within the trains, which should be affordable to common ppl.

2) Good Seurity System at railway platforms, as we are more prone to terror attacks.

High speed trains

idea posted by Anand P Project Manager, Centillium India

We need high speed trains which can travel the length and breadth of India in shorter duration. Railways being costeffective and accessable to the common man, it should also be modernized.
