RailsTools is an independent website that turns common railway questions into simple tools. We built it for ordinary travellers who want a quick answer without reading a rulebook.
What we offer
A seat and berth finder, a train number decoder, a Tatkal and advance booking calculator, a ticket refund estimator, a station code finder and a guide to railway zones, in English and Hindi.
Where our information comes from
The tools follow publicly known Indian Railways rules, and the station list comes from open DataMeet railway data. We are not the railway. Rules and fares change, so treat our answers as guidance and confirm on the official IRCTC or NTES site before you book or cancel.
