PNR Number a Great
Help for Many
Passengers

2. Overview -
PNR is the abbreviation of passenger name record. When
the computerized reservation ticket booking system of the
Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC)
sells a railway ticket for any train journey, it generates a
unique 10-digit number. This number is printed at the top of
the online ticket.
If the reservation is not confirmed, the passenger is in the
waitlist. When passengers, who have earlier booked
confirmed reservation tickets, cancel their journey for some
reason or the other and cancel their tickets, the cancelled
tickets are given to the passengers on the waitlist.

3. Waitlisted passengers have to keep checking their PNR status
to know if they are moving ahead in the queue and getting a
confirmed reservation. If they are getting a confirmed
reservation, they have to know the seat and coach number.
This PNR status checking is facilitated by the PNR number.

Checking PNR Status A Useful System -

6. Even if a contact was established with the railway personnel
concerned, there would be no guarantee of getting any
certain information. Passengers would have to reach the
station early and search the reservation charts pasted a few
minutes before the arrival of the train through a big anxious
crowd.
If the reservation was confirmed, they had to rush with their
bag and baggage to the spot on the platform where their
coach would arrive. If the reservation was not confirmed,
more running around would be in store for them.
