If you are a train passenger ,you may be familiar with term 'PNR'.Passenger Name Record ( PNR ) is a record in the database of a computer reservation system (CRS) that contains the itinerary for a passenger, or a group of passengers traveling together.
This system has been followed by the Indian Railways while making ticket reservation through internet or at ticket counters.When a passenger books an itinerary, the travel agent or travel website user will create a PNR in the computer reservation system it uses.
If you are using IRCTC official portal to reserve train tickets,you must register with IRCTC and can login with provided username and password.You could easily enter the source and destination station names or codes , select category , and find if there is a train available running between those two stations. You can book the train ticket for you if available.
After booking ,you will assigned a unique number (PNR) generated after the booking of the tickets.Earlier ,PNR status was either found at the station enquiry counter or through Indian Railways customer care number.Now PNR status enquiry can be done online.You are able to find the update on your IRCTC PNR Status by logging into your IRCTC account, or by going to number of other websites that offer PNR Status Enquiry.
