Passenger 1: RLWL# 2 (GN) (Booking Status: RLWL# 13)
Total Fare:  1870
Chart NOT Prepared
**** #Gaya to Vadodara via New Delhi *****
-------------------------------------------------- -------
Tatkal quota has 24 seats in 2AC and 80 seats in 3AC between any two stations.
Charting time is at previous night itself for SVDK/JAT/SZM towards Vadodara quota.
Whereas Ndls-BRC quota is separate. And charting time is 4 hours before schedule departure from New Delhi ie. @ 17:50.
5 seats were still left yesterday in Tatkal quota for today's journey. Hence SZM will be benefited in comparison with Delhi
-------------------------------------------------- -------
Wanted to book in Mumbai Rajdhani but evening time departure was not suitable as reaching new Delhi at 10 AM morning. Hence preferred night time departure in Swaraj Superfast Express.
Below different Availability Status were seen in these stations and below classes :
- RLWL42/WL22 (3AC for SZM - BRC quota)
- RLWL103/WL74 (SL for SZM - BRC quota)

I checked the available in weekly 12938 / Gandhidham Garbha Express. It was heavily waiting for Gaya-Vadodara quota :
1) RLWL135/WL120 in SLeeper
2) RLWL35/WL20 in 3AC
3) RLWL17/WL10 in 3AC
4) GNWL10/WL3 in 2AC (for Asansol- Ahmadabad quota)
5) RAC14/RAC12 in 2AC (for Asansol- Ahmadabad quota)
6) GNWL58/WL19 in SLeeper (for Asansol- Ahmadabad quota)
7) PQWL16/WL11 in 3ac (Hwh/ASN- Vadodara quota)
8) PQWL 47/WL28 in SL (Hwh/ASN- Vadodara quota)
Garbha Express reaching Vadodara on Wednesday morning itself (1 day before reporting date). And it passes via Agra (ie. Just around 200 km from Delhi).
Hence I thought of utilizing this extra one day by making trip via Delhi in Rajdhani.
