People traveling long distance often prefer to travel by train. This is because it makes the journey easier and inexpensive. But during festivals, people often face trouble in traveling by train. Because the seats are filled in the train only one to two months before the festival. In this way you buy waiting tickets, but you do not know whether it will be confirmed or not. Many people complain that even after the waiting list is low, the ticket is not confirmed, while your partner’s ticket is confirmed despite the long waiting list. To understand this, we must first know how many types of waiting list is in the train. Because on the basis of waiting list, you will know whether your seat is confirmed or not.
This type of waiting list is first confirmed.
GNWL General Waiting List – This waiting ticket is issued from the same station from where the train leaves. For example, if the train starts from Delhi and you have also booked your ticket from Delhi, then such a waiting list has been given on this ticket.
The ticket is more likely to be confirmed in this train, because the train is also starting from where you have booked the ticket. If GNWL/6 is written on your ticket in such a waiting list, then you can understand that there is a waiting list of 6 seats to confirm your seat. Your seat will be confirmed as soon as any one of these 6 passengers who book tickets are canceled.
Pquwl
Poold quota waiting list is for intermediate stations in long distance trains. In this, the passenger train is starting from where it starts and wants to travel to any station between its last stop. Since you are starting your journey from the station and want to get down before the last stop of the train, the possibility of confirmation is very low, because most people have booked long distance train tickets. It is difficult for only those people who want to travel between 5 to 6 stations.
TQWL ticket
Many people also buy tickets in immediate, but they do not get confirmed seats in it. In such a situation, they will have to travel along with waiting tickets. Immediate quota waiting list means that the Railways does not have any quota, which means that only your ticket has a chance to be confirmed.
Because the number of Tatkal tickets in trains is limited. When all the seats in the train are full, people book Tatkal tickets, but when the immediate seats also become full, there is no possibility of the immediate waiting ticket to be confirmed. (These five rules of railway can be very useful for you)
RSWL ticket
RSWL code tickets are also very low. This type of waiting list is written on the tickets of passengers who book tickets for some distance stations from the original station of the train.
Such tickets are less likely to be confirmed. Because most passengers book tickets for long distance travel. The number of passengers traveling at just 4 to 5 stations is less.
