✨ Railway Fares and Conditions
-
Conditions—Sleeping carriages will, as far as possible, be reserved for the use of passengers holding sleeping-berth tickets. The Department reserves the right to require passengers holding sleeping-berth tickets to ride in the sleeping-carriages throughout the journey. The Department also reserves the right to accommodate any passengers not holding sleeping-berth tickets in the sleeping carriages until it is necessary to make up berths for the night, when passengers who have not been allotted sleeping accommodation must move to another part of the train.
-
Ordering and Allotment of Berths—(a) Sleeping berths may be reserved at any station where there is an officer in charge, or at authorised booking agencies. The Department reserves the right to cancel trains and alter train timetables without notice, and reservations of sleeping-berths will be made subject to such cancellation or alteration.
(b) Application for the reservation of sleeping-berths will be received as under:
(i) At the station from which the train commences its journey—not later than 1 hour before the timetable time of departure of the train from the starting station.
(ii) At other stations or offices—not later than 2½ hours before the timetable time of departure of the train from the original starting station.
- Cancellation of Berths—Passengers who desire to cancel berths previously paid for may be permitted to do so, and provided application for refund or transfer is made not later than 4 hours prior to the scheduled departure time of train from the starting station, will be granted a refund less the deduction prescribed in Section 37, or a transfer if required.
