railfan23 144 blog postsWe need to take the BBS - Howrah Jan Shatabdi (Train # 12074) tomorrow (29th Sept.) morning, and the IndianRail site click here is showing (at 9.32 pm, on 28th Sept.) an availability of 10 seats under the A/C Chair Car class (CC). , Thereupon, when I tried to book the tickets at the IRCTC site, it mentions that the Charts had already been prepared (which is understandable).

Sir, though it's understandable that the charts would be prepared by this time for trains departing early morning the next day, how come the indianrail.gov.in site is still - even now, at 9.53 pm - showing that 10 seats are available?! This is a serious anomaly, as the IndianRail site is supposed to be real-time too, just like IRCTC. Would I be able to book the tickets (CC) now (it's now nearly 10 pm, and I'm put up at a place some 10 minutes from the BBS station), or do I need to do this tomorrow morning (i.e., how many hours prior to the departure of a given train does its current booking open). Thanks for your advice.
current tkt issued 2-4 hrs before train dep so go accordingly
bbs current counter is near pf tkts counter in pf 1 , since distance is less he may say contact train tte but u ask tkt saying rush will be there due to pooja festive so plz give tkt, 10 seats avl so give the tkt.
