Checked Where
Is My Train?
Still late?

Congratulations. You are officially in a
Nowhere Is My Train situation.

MAKE SOME NOISE

One form. Three ways to complain. Nothing stored here.

WHY THIS EXISTS

A 30-minute delay can become seven hours. A generic apology is not always an explanation.

KNOW YOUR RIGHTS

A late train. A refund?

It depends on whether you travelled.

01 / IF YOU DON’T TRAVEL

Over three hours late at boarding?

If you choose not to travel because the train is more than three hours late, full fare refund may be available under the applicable rules. For an e-ticket, file the correct TDR before the train actually departs. Check your ticket’s conditions and deadlines.

Official IRCTC refund rules, sections 7 & 14
02 / IF YOU ALREADY TRAVELLED

Compensation is not automatic.

A delay does not by itself guarantee compensation. A consumer claim depends on the facts, the cause of delay, proven deficiency in service and evidence of harm or loss.

In Northern Western Railway v. Sanjay Shukla, 6 September 2021, the Supreme Court left a delay-related award standing on the facts of that case. This is not a fixed payout for every late train. Read the court order, SLP(C) 13288/2021 (PDF hosted by LiveLaw)

A SMALL PROJECT. A FAMILIAR PROBLEM.

Time lost deserves
more than “regretted”.

This started with a journey that went from a small delay to roughly seven hours late, cutting into booked overnight rest for a senior companion. The reply was generic. The impact wasn’t.

We do not track your train. We help you demand an answer when it is late.

A free, non-commercial public-interest project. No ads, donations, accounts or complaint counts.

A few things to know.

Does this website send the complaint for me?

No. It prepares your message. RailMadad opens its complaint form. X opens a post with your message filled in. Email opens Gmail with the recipients, subject and message filled in; you can choose another email app too. Always review, then send it yourself.

Is any passenger information stored?

Your journey details stay on this page and clear when you refresh. This site has no passenger database or tracking cookies. Copying saves the message for you to paste. Opening X shares the public message with X; opening Gmail or another email app shares the email details with that service. Those services have their own privacy policies. The service hosting this site may keep basic visit records.

Does this register a refund or guarantee action?

No. Submit a grievance through the official channel, and a refund request through the applicable railway or IRCTC process. This website cannot guarantee intervention, delivery, a response, refund or compensation. For immediate railway assistance, call 139.
