Indian Rail - Checking PNR Status

Have you ever made booking for travel on Indian Railways and got tickets wait-listed? How do you track whether you moved up in the waiting list or not? How do you know if your train is delayed? I think we all would have experienced the lazy, dull and disinterested voice of the help-desk number at Railway stations. Most of the times, you are given a chance to ask only one question. If you are fortunate, the operator would pick-up the phone (if the phone does not give busy tone) after 10 times.

A simple but effective IT solution for that lies with http://mypnrstatus.com. If you provide PNR number and mobile number, you would be informed about the change in PNR status and train timings. A classic information-push rather than an information-pull case. The world's 4th largest railway network can actually provide more such simple but significant services.
