Railway Ticket Reservation System

Harshit Maheshwari, 10290

Aim of the Project


This project aims to implement an IRCTC-like ticket reservation system.

What has been achieved


A simple server has been set up which offers users to:
• make a user account
• delete a user account
• enquire about trains, seats, fares, routes
• book, cancel, view tickets
• file TDR
• get PNR status

Significant amount of test data has been accumulated by parsing realistic data from web sources. A
major part of the project is dedicated to managing:
• reservation data ranging from 2 months old upto 4 months in future
• trains, trips, timetables, station pools
• distances between stations
• fares & costs
• quotas viz. GN, TKL, LD
• status viz. CNF, W/L, RAC (with proper pool, quota and wait list clearance)
• coaches viz. S, G, A, B , C, CC
• seat allotment
• cancellations

What has not been achieved


• The chart preparation phase wherein all bookings are listed, printed and handed over to the
ticket checking staff has been overlooked.
• The TDR resolution facility has been skipped; TDRs can be filed though.
