During the journey, you will have comfortable sleeping
Railways have further improved the 139 service. Many times when we travel in the night, we are very alert till we reach the station, we can not even sleep properly. After this new railway initiative, you can sleep anxious because the railway will awake you by calling yourself on the desired station. Travellers need to activate the wake-up call Destination Alert facility by calling only 139 for this.
You will not get Waiting Ticket
Indian Railways has made another big decision to make the journey happy and comfortable. Waiting tickets will not be available from today. Railways will now issue only Confirm and RAC tickets to the people. When you go to IRCTC’s site to take the ticket and if the train you want to take a ticket, if there is no space in it, the railway will give you the option of the surrounding date.
Confirmation of ticket
