The mum was discovered dead by British Transport Police shortly after the video call on June 3, MEN reports.
An inquest heard how Jill’s cause of death was given as “extensive traumatic injuries”.
Coroner’s officer Alison Catlow told the court: “British Transport Police received a call from Greater Manchester Police to advise that they had received a call from the female’s partner, stating that she had Facetimed him whilst on the railway tracks.”
It is believed Jill had been involved with mental health services before her death, the inquest heard.
The full hearing was adjourned until November 11 at South Manchester Coroner’s Court.
Jill’s daughter Amber, 25, previously revealed how she “literally had nothing in her brain” the moment she was told her mum had died.
She added: “I just felt numb. I still don’t feel like it’s real. It’s just been me and my mum every day.
“I just feel like she’s going to walk through the door, like she’s not really gone.
“Especially the way it happened – she promised she would never leave me. She told me a few weeks ago she was struggling and didn’t want to be here but she wouldn’t leave me.
“She was my best friend and we used to do everything together.”
Amber also paid tribute to her “bubbly” mum, who had worked as landlady of The Crown pub, near Stockport Viaduct.
She said: “Anyone I’d speak to would say it wasn’t a normal mother-daughter relationship.
“We used to tell each other everything. Everyone was jealous of our friendship. She never judged me.”
