I just stumbled upon {ln:nw:http://whathowhat.blogspot.com/2007/09/new-railway-web-site-erailin.html} this blog and found out about a really useful website for Indian trains. The site basically provides really easy to use features and is very intuitive. The site is called eRail.in. The site slogan is "Better way to search trains", which is true when you look at this website.
The site provides list of stations you can choose for your journey. Once you select the To and From stations, the site will list all the available trains for that route with all the details about those trains. for e.g. ticket availablity, days of operation, arrival-departure timings etc. Once yous elect the train that you are interested in, the site will bring further details about its route listing the stations that are covered under that route with its arrival and departure information. Though the online ticket booking is not available through that site, a link to ticket booking is available from the site.
