How early should I arrive at the train station?

Arrive at least 30 minutes before departure for domestic trains and up to an hour for international routes or if you need to navigate larger stations.

What should I do if I'm running late?

Check if your ticket allows for travel on a later train without penalty. If not, contact customer support via the Rail Monsters app for assistance or local ticketing office at the rail station.

How do I find my platform and train?

Look for electronic boards or signs in the station. You can also use the Rail Monsters app for platform information, on routes if real-time data is available.

What is the boarding process for trains?

Follow station signs to your platform and wait in the designated area for your class or car number. Boarding typically begins a few minutes before departure.

How do I handle transfers between trains?

Review your transfer details in advance, including the platform number and transfer time. Keep your ticket and ID accessible for quick transitions.

What if I have issues with my digital ticket?

Ensure your phone is charged, and have a screenshot or PDF of your ticket saved. If you encounter any issues, seek assistance from the station staff or Rail Monsters customer support.

How can I make my train journey more enjoyable?

Bring entertainment, such as books or downloaded movies, and snacks. Use the journey to relax, enjoy the scenery, and perhaps plan activities for your destination.

Can I bring food and drinks on board the train?

Most trains allow you to bring your own food and non-alcoholic beverages. Some trains also offer dining cars or at-seat service, especially on longer journeys.
