More on Indian Railways
From 1853 to 2009, the Indian Railways has certainly come a long way. The 63,140 Kms of rail network is the 5th largest in the world, and not just covers 28 states and 3 union territories, but also stretches up to Bangladesh, Nepal and Pakistan. Each year, the railways transport 7 billion passengers and 350 million tones of freight. This statistic clearly indicates the enormity, expansiveness and extensiveness of railway system in India.
With time, the Indian Railways has also undergone change. Steam locomotives have been replaced by diesel and electric locomotives; broad gauge is taking the place of the original narrow and metre gauge. Manual ticketing has been replaced by electronic ticketing system. Apart from general, sleeper and first classes, AC two tier, AC three tier and AC Chair Car have been introduced to make the journey more comfortable and enjoyable. Several super fast trains as Rajdhani Express, Shatabdi Express have been introduced to save the precious time of the passengers. In all long-distance trains pantry car is attached for the benefit of the passengers.
Where to Get IRC Ticket From
The city life is very different; the entire 24-hours of the day are spent in completing the daily household chores, carrying out the job responsibilities and traveling to and from the home. There is practically no time for pleasure and leisure. For the convenience of such ultra-busy people, the Indian Railways has introduced the IRC ticket. It is a rail ticket that is booked through the website of IRCTC.
IRCTC or Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation is a subsidiary of the railways and handles its catering, tourism and internet-based ticketing operations. You can not only book your IRC ticket for this site, but you can also modify and even cancel the ticket without any hassles. In addition to E-tickets, you can also book I-tickets, which are the regular tickets that are booked online, but delivered by post.
