Namaste all. Need your advise. Booked 4 months advance journey 1ac from Prayagraj to Delhi and status is rlwl1 to 6 in Tejas Raj. PNR predictions are favoring seat confirmation but still confused. Should I book a backup in Shiv Ganga? Why are the seat availabilities so low in all ac1 in Rajdhanis and other expresses. Doesn't help that the trip is so close to Diwali. We need 6 tickets and no train has 6 available. Whats the cost if I cancel a non confirmed/confirmed ticket after chart prep? Thanks a lot in advance. So glad I found this community!

Thanks a lot. I agree with you. I am considering booking Prayagraj since it has over 30 seats available so more chances of getting seats together I guess. Travel date is 9th Nov night train.

The locomotive in this video is called Ukko Pekka which means Thunder Pekka. It was one of the first largest passanger express steam locomotives built in Finland in 1948 so right after WWII. It can run upto 110km/h. Nowadays Ukko Pekka does heritage runs for passangers during Summers.

Are there many steam engines in use in India?

I am trying to book tejas rajdhani 1ac from Prayagraj to NDLS 4 months in advance. Why is it showing waitlisted when booking isn't even open yet for that day and previous day is also waitlisted.

Sorry, what does 'not alloted' mean? Alloted to general quota?

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake.
