How it will work is that the TTEs will feed in the current vacancy position, coach wise and berth wise in the hand held terminals, which will be directly linked to passenger reservation system (PRS) to enable allotment of vacant berths to wait-listed passengers at ensuing stations.

Spot Ur Train - www.mobyqube.com
This is an useful WAP page helpful for all the train travellers.
Using your train number, you can know the current status of the train and the time at which it will reach the forthcoming stations.
You need not waste your time waiting in the railway station if you know that the train is going to be late. You can use your mobile to see the Expected Time of Arrival of your Train.
