Train Schedule Guides
A train timetable is the official planned movement of a train across its route. Whether you call it the train schedule or the Indian Railways train schedule, it is the backbone of every timing you check before a trip.
A timetable lists the station sequence from source to destination. For each scheduled stop, it can show arrival time, departure time, halt duration, distance from source and journey day.
It may also show running days so you know which weekdays the train normally operates.
Arrival is the planned time when the train reaches a station. Departure is the planned time when it leaves. Halt is the planned stop duration between arrival and departure.
For the source station, arrival may be blank because the train starts there. For the destination station, departure may be blank because the train ends there.
The timetable is official planned time. If the train is late today, the timetable does not become the delayed time.
For example, if scheduled arrival is 10:30 and expected arrival today is 11:05, the train schedule remains 10:30.
Halt is the planned stop duration at a station.
Journey day shows whether a station is reached on day 1, day 2, or later from the train's start.
