RLWL tickets are confirmed only when someone from the remote location station vacates berth through cancellation. Remote location stations prepare their own chart 2-3 hours before the actual departure of the train. RLWL confirmation chances are usually very low.
The number before the RLWL indicates your position on the waiting list. For example, if the status is RLWL/7, it means that you are the 7th passenger on the waiting list. The lower the number, the higher the chances of your ticket getting confirmed.
RLWL is a waitlisted ticket basically. You can cancel it exactly like you would do a general waitlisted ticket. As long as you cancel the ticket at least 30 min before the scheduled departure of the train, you would get a full refund, minus clerkage charges.
If an RLWL (Remote Location Waitlist) ticket remains on the waiting list even after the chart preparation is completed, the ticket will be automatically canceled, and a refund will be credited according to the rules. It is not possible for an RLWL ticket to be confirmed after the chart is prepared.
If your RLWL (Remote Location Waitlist) ticket is not confirmed by the time of the train's departure, the ticket will be automatically cancelled, and the refund will be processed by the Indian Railways. You do not need to file a TDR (Ticket Deposit Receipt) in this case.
No, it's not recommended to travel on a train with a waitlisted (RLWL) ticket as there's no guarantee of a seat or berth. If your ticket doesn't get confirmed before departure, you won't be allowed to board the train. If the WL ticket was booked online, it would get cancelled automatically, so you cannot travel on it.
The likelihood of an RLWL being confirmed is quite low. Once the chart is made, if there are still RLWL tickets on the waitlist, they are canceled right away and a refund is given.
