On Indian Railways Reservation and Trains List

When going for Indian Railways reservation under the tatkal scheme, you no longer need to worry about the high extra charges levied. As per Railway Budget 2009-10, tatkal charges have been reduced to 10% of basic fare for second class and 30% of basic fare for all other classes. I have come across budget conscious railway travelers who do not opt for tatkal Indian Railways reservation because of extra charges. Now paying Rs. 15 for second sitting, Rs. 150 for sleeper, Rs. 150 for AC chair car, and Rs. 300 for all other AC classes at the maximum will hardly affect your budget. Visit IRCTC website or Zoomtra.com for your Indian Railways reservation.

The trains list is available in many a tourist guide. To get the trains list from the Indian Railways website, enter the source station code, destination station code, class, and journey date (link for station code information is available in the same page) in the related column. Once you click on the search button, you will be immediately transported to the desired ‘trains list’ page.

To know the PNR Status, visit the related link. Again, once you enter the information and click the button, you will know your PNR status instantly.
