Each leg is a separate ticket on its own PNR, booked separately — and the second one is only worth buying once the first is confirmed.

Which of these arrives on time

A booked timetable is a promise — this is what has actually happened.

How we grade this

Fares

Estimated from the published tables for 1,423 km. The exact fare is the one IRCTC shows at checkout.

Estimated fares by class for the 1,423 km between Howrah Jn and Ghaziabad, priced for a Superfast train in General quota.

One adult, General quota, for the 1,423 km of this route, priced as a Superfast — the category 1 of the 3 trains above belong to. Which classes a particular train actually carries is not in our timetable, so this is what the distance costs in each class rather than a list of what is on any one train; the seat check below reads the real classes live. Every figure is an estimate confirmed at IRCTC checkout, never a quote, and flexi-fare trains are priced at the floor because occupancy pricing cannot be known before booking.
