Post your waitlist questions here ONLY

1. Refer RAC and Waitlists explained.
2. PQWL is quite uncertain. Try alternatives.

I'm assuming you're referring to me. It's no problem cus I can make other train arrangements. I was very doubtful on this ticket. Thank you for the information!

17th people had booked the ticket prior to OP. Thus he was the 18th person in line. However due to some cancellations it has now come down to the 9th position.

PS:- No RAC in PQWL

I am not quite sure but this is what I could gather reading the availability status.

Regards.

thank you for correcting me I didn't even know of PQWL until today.

Hey one last question, so my other arrangement is to book train 14036 Dhaulandhar Exp from PTK (pathankot) to NDLS (new delhi station) leaving at 22:30 on 14/7, then to book also train 12808 Samta Exp on 15/7 going from NDLS to AGC (agra)

Both of these trains have about 100 avaqilable tickets. Problem is I am in a village near dharamsala, so there is no train office I can book ticket. THere is a little shop here but they are going to charge 100 rs per ticket to book for me! Do you think these tickets willstill be available tomorrow afternoon by the time I Reach pathankot? BEcause if so I will book directly there at the pathankot station. I don't want to spend 100 rs. per ticket for booking! I can not book myself online because of credit card problems. thank you!

1. 14036 do not have any FT Quota. It is quite hard to predict whether the tickets would still be available till tomorrow or not. For safety keep a backup.
2. For the second train, do not worry much. There are many volvos available in this sector and even if you miss the train you can easily reach Agra by a Volvo.
3. None of the train touches NDLS. Former goes to Old Delhi and the latter starts from Nizammudin.

Present status is WL 30, will it confirm?

Final Status=> RAC.

##Mostly difficult. You should be lucky, if this gets confirmed.

##Another danger is this is an E-Ticket, which means it gets automatically cancelled, if it do not gets confirmed "during charting".

#Right.

##Do you mean under "WL" (or) "RAC"? Just curious!!!

RAC.
##
One more observation.
Many a times one would find no RAC tickets being issued for Duronto.
However during cancellations, one would find his/her WL'ed ticket gradually come down to RAC and then getting confirmed.

##The decision about attaching Extra Coach is normally taken on the day of departure, duly keeping in view the Waiting List and subject to availability of space in the formation. It is equally difficult as to how many cancellations take place before train's departure.

##Definitely, there is a limit for RAC for any Class.

##Yes, Waitlisted Tickets are issued as requested by the passengers, till such time it reaches the REGRET LIMIT.

##As I said earlier, the SCR accomodates only 4 RAC Passengers per 3AC Coach, whereas the ECoR accomodates 6 Passengers per 3AC Coach. I have seen this in 2727/2728.

##In so far as RAC.11 for 2AC of 7488 is concerned, I will try to ascertain the position, because I have seen only Two 2AC Coches in 7487/7488.

##If there is no provision for RAC, like in PQWL, those in Waiting List will directly move into confirmed status, however, subject to availability of berths on account of cancellations, if any, that may take place before/during Charting.
