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

The share of days each train has reached Kollam Jn within 15 minutes of its booked time, over the year to September 2026, from our delay history. 6 of 6 trains on this route have enough of a record to rank; the rest we have not tracked enough to say. A booked timetable is a promise — this is what has actually happened.

How we grade this

Fares

Estimated from the published tables for 2,626 km. The exact fare is the one IRCTC shows at checkout.

Estimated fares by class for the 2,626 km between Kota Jn and Kollam Jn, priced for a Superfast train in General quota.
ClassFareBasis
SL Sleeper970from observed fares
3A AC 3 tier2,420from observed fares
3E AC 3 economy2,426from observed fares
2A AC 2 tier3,486from observed fares
1A AC first class5,875from observed fares

One adult, General quota, for the 2,626 km of this route, priced as a Superfast — the category 5 of the 6 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.
