Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How do I check the full station route and halt schedule of an Indian Railways train?
Enter any 5-digit Indian Railways train number (such as 12951, 12002, 22436, or 12301) in the search box above. The route table displays every commercial halt, station code, arrival and departure time, halt duration, cumulative distance in kilometres, and running day (Day 1, Day 2, Day 3).
Why does the route day number (Day 1, Day 2, Day 3) matter for IRCTC ticket booking?
IRCTC counts both the 60-day Advance Reservation Period (ARP) and the 1-day Tatkal window from the train's originating station departure date (Day 1), not your intermediate boarding date. If a train reaches your station on Day 2, general booking opens 61 days before your boarding date.
How can I calculate the exact IRCTC booking opening date for a station on this route?
Click the 'Calculate Booking Date' button above to open the interactive 60-day ARP and Tatkal calculator pre-loaded with this train's halts.
