Coach Position means where will coach come at the platform at stations. Some trains have long halts at stations while some have very short halt (of about 1-2 minutes only) and it gets very difficult for passengers to board safely due to rush and very less timings. In such cases train coach position is very helpful as by this facility, passengers can know beforehand where their train coach is going to arrive at the platform and so they don’t have to run with their luggage in hand to board the train. Train coach position is very useful for passengers as they will then know where to stand at platforms when train arrives and can catch train without any hassle. Their are indicators too at the platform sometimes to know coach position in trains which is also helpful for passengers, however not every station in India have digital indicators and in such cases too train coach position is quite useful for passengers.
