PNR Prediction: WILL confirm

@first blogger:
Please provide the PNR number for better understanding of the discussion.

@first blogger:
from where to where?

@first blogger:
yes u have change get conform ticket

@first blogger:
The IR website also confirms there is no stop at Manmad Jn. It would have been only a technical halt.

@first blogger:
There is no stop at Manmad. It may be a technical halt and you may have boarded the general compartment with a unreserved ticket.

@first blogger:
It departs - before midnight - @ 11.00 pm from Bangalore City Jn and 11.15 pm from Bangalore Cantt for Chennai.

@Kapadia : Mar 08 (05:59PM)
Maybe the initial blogger wants to say that the train is late and leaves from Bangalore after midnight.

@first blogger:
How does that matter as long as it arrives right time at destination.

@MST IndianRailways: Mar 09 (12:05AM)
Just look at dep from SSPN it has been over 2 hours delay for whole of Jan and Feb .So might be all he wanted to say was about this delay which I am sure would have reflected on the SBC dep as well.
So he was talking abt actual dep while we are all taking abt scheduled dep.

@MST IndianRailways: Mar 09 (12:05AM)
Who told it reaches destination on time... always late by 2hrs 30 mins

@anon: Mar 17 (12:56PM)
This train leaving SSPM at 7:00Pm has to encounter 2786, 2627 and 6530 expresses on the single line section before reaching Bypanahalli. The other trains being more prestigious and long distance-this one being a weekly it gets delayed before reaching Bangalore City. anyway a weekly to SSPM wont suffice-railways can actually cut it down to Bangalore city and introduce another train to SSPM via Cuddapah or Krishnarajapuram

@first blogger:
Seriously. It takes off a good load from 3A's of Island express

@siddharth: Mar 04 (04:34PM)
I wish they push it to the 6515/6316 slot and make it a daily. I am sure the bus guys from Kerala who charge 1000Rs for a Volvo ride will get bust.I heard they got bust on the TVC MAS and ERS MAS section because of the fact that there are 3 pairs of convenient trains excluding the Guruvayoor express.

@Dharmaraj : Mar 04 (05:04PM)
Yes 6315/16 slot is better than the existing slot fo this train. But one advantage of present slot is passengers check their 6526 tickt and if that is not confirmed immediately go to current reservation and book a ticket in this which goes faster than 6526

@prasad: Mar 04 (05:17PM)
Good suggestion. There is one more weekly train 6321/6322 which starts from TVC to SBC (Via Alleppey). This can be clubbed to the timings of 6315/6316. With this, on 4 days, we can a faster train from Kerala to Bangalore via Alapuzha and 3 days via Kottayam (ie., Garib Rath). Departure Timings can be like this: TVC/ KCVL 1630;QLN 1730; KTM/ ALP: 1900;ERS/ ERN 2030; TCR 2145;PLKD 2300;CBE 0010; ED 0145;SA 0245; DPJ 0400;HSR 0530; SBC 0645.
On the return direction, the timings can be like this: SBC 1815; HSR 1930; DPJ 2045;SA 2215; ED 2315; CBE 0045; PLKD 0200; TCR 0315;ERS/ ERN 0430;KTM/ ALP 0540;QLN 0700;TVC/ KCVL 0800.
It will be a boon if my dream comes true.

That option is only for submitting feedback for the website and not general suggestions that would need to be made in writing to the concerned authorities.

@anon: Mar 09 (10:50PM)
Prasad,
The timing that you suggested would not work because of some path sharing issues.
Himasagar and gurudev is sharing 4.30 departure with 6322 from trivandrum and in return direction 4.30 Am is the path o jayanthi janatha from ERN to TVC

PQ means pool qota yes u r ticket will confirmed in rac

@saragada ramesh: Mar 15 (02:40PM)
thanks very much.. I just wanted to know that whether PQWL is very similar to General Waiting List.

@anon: Mar 15 (02:45PM)
@anon: Mar 15 (02:45PM)
Pooled quota wait list different from General Wait list. There are many blogs about the same you can search to get more information about the same. About chances of this clearing it does look remote.
@Saragada Ramesh
To my knowledge the PQWL move have only a small number of berths allotted in a train.Say a coach or so in sleeper class for this train. So how do you expect these berths to get confirmed so easily.

@Dharmaraj : Mar 15 (02:56PM)
Somwhere in this very page we saw there is no evidence of PQWL being placed in RAC. PQWL either gets confirmed or stays waitlisted.

@kuttetan:
Thia has been announced in the current budget , the date of extension will be notified later along with new timetable.

@kuttetan:
This is one of the extensions announced in the Rail Budget 2010. The new time table generally comes into effect from July 1st and hopefully this extension will become operational from that date.

@first blogger:
15000

@first blogger:
2284 has a SLR car so you should be able to take it but I am not sure about the cost. 15000 does not sound realistic to me.

@first blogger
it should be somewhere around 8000-10000

@adarsh: Mar 13 (07:15PM)
Will this really cost 10000 rs..??
Because i checked in the official site for luggauge rules n it was written that luggauge which weighs 120kg- 140kg it was around 1200 rs n my bike's just 121 kg.

@anon: Mar 13 (08:48PM)
they charge for 300kgs for a bike irrespective of the make of bike + surcharge on the value of the bike which you have to declare. if you declare u r bike value as 10000/- no surcharge is added. one more thing just clarify with the railway staff whether to book as laguage or parcel as normal laguage is charged 1.5 times were as parcel are not.

@anon: Mar 14 (10:21PM)
i dont know why people are saying such figures. i once took my bike from pune to howrah...2000 kms... charged me around rs 600 and i paid another 150 to the staff there, so that they wrap it with straw and bags...that was in 2006 though...but it cant be so high now

@first blogger:
Please post PNR for best analysis.

@first blogger:
Plz post your PNR No.

my PNR number is 8139842560

@anon: Mar 09 (08:04PM)
Its for the peak season and so chances are not bright although the date of journey is in may, so lets watch, if you dont see good improvements till 05th may then you can also opt for Tatkal.

@anon: Mar 09 (08:04PM)
Chances are not bad.
But still to be on safer you can try booking as a standby ticket in summer spl train 0911 (Bandra - Gorakhpur) , announced on this route.

Thanks for your valuable suggestion.
Will the confirm tatkal ticket will be available if I book throught irctc website in peak season or do I have to book it from authorised agent of irctc.
please suggest.

@anon: Mar 10 (10:41AM)
it totally depends that in peak season you are able to book the ticket or not through irctc(most of the people get negative results) due to heavy load on server,
so if you are sure that you can book the go ahead other wise you can book through auth agents( the list of some agents given on the blog page)

@first blogger:
GO 4 BOOKING OF SUMMER SPECIAL

Will the summer special train booking can be done through IRCTC web site or we have to do Counter booking .
Can u suggest and also let me the day when it is going to start
How many days prior ,can we book the summer special train .

@anon: Mar 10 (06:46PM)
Summer specials can be booked on IRCTC.The booking dates are announced by the particular zonal railways .Please refer to news section to find exact dates.

@first blogger:
U not stated ur current waiting list or booking status waiting list , normally waitinglist Sl.no.WL/120(first no). get clear . its average May be vary little

@first blogger:
Yes...AC bogies should be added for this train, not sure why they have not added those

@first blogger:
The 3AC fares are same for Passenger and Express services, So generally 3AC is not added to passengers. SL and FC have a separate fare structure for Passenger and express services. These are much cheaper.

@Dharmaraj : Mar 09 (11:03AM)
Ok...but during summer time, I think 3AC bogies will be a help...Fares should not be an issue

@first blogger:
Generally no passenger/fast passengers have AC coaches. Only UR,SL,FC available in Passengers.

@anon: Mar 13 (07:34PM)
It is a good thought but it is only for a 3 or 4 month summer period after which nobody will want to pay the high fare(express 3AC) as it will at least be 3 or 4 times sleeper fare, It will be higher than the passenger FC fare even.
@Siddharth
There are passenger trains with 3A coaches in SCR, I am not sure about any other place.
