what is rlwl in railway

RLWL stands for Remote Location Waiting List, which is a type of waiting list ticket issued for intermediate stations between the originating and terminating stations. Most trains stop at important stations in remote locations to pick up more passengers en route, and there are a limited number of reserved seats for these locations on each train. The confirmations of RLWL tickets depend on the cancellations of a confirmed ticket, and the remote location stations prepare their own chart 2-3 hours prior to the actual departure of the train. The chances of getting an RLWL ticket confirmed are generally less than other types of waiting list tickets.
