\nCircular Journey Tickets give you the benefit of telescopic rates, which are considerably lower than regular point to point fare. With these tickets, you not only save time but also the inconvenience of booking ticket at each leg of the journey.<\/p>\n

\n1. Once your itinerary is finalized, you can approach the Divisional Commercial Manager of the Division of certain major stations to which the journey commencing station belongs. The Divisional Commercial Manager or the station authorities will then calculate the cost of the tickets based on your itinerary. He will also inform the Station Manager of the same in a prescribed format.<\/p>\n

2. You can purchase Circular Journey Tickets by presenting this form at the Booking Office of the station where you propose to start your journey. After purchasing the Circular Journey Ticket, you must approach the Reservation Office to reserve your accommodation for various laps of your journey. You will then be issued reserved journey ticket for the journey.<\/p>\n

3. No Standard Circular Journey Tickets are issued by Southern Railways, only non-standard Circular Journey Tickets as per the itenary given by the passengers are issued by the Southern Railways. A Circular Journey Ticket is charged for as two single journeys, the length of each single journey being taken as half of the total distance.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what I found about Standard Circular Journey Tour Tickets<\/strong> offered by South Central Railway (SCR)<\/strong>:<\/p>\n

\n

What Are Standard Circular Journey Tickets (CJT)?<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Circular Journey Tickets let you start and end your trip at the same station, covering up to 8 break journeys<\/strong>, and are perfect for pilgrimages or sightseeing tours. They offer telescopic (step-wise distance) fare benefits<\/strong>, which often cost less than equivalent point-to-point fares.<\/li>\n
  • SCR provides standard circular tour routes<\/strong> that are pre-designed and ready for booking. These are listed with details such as the starting station, route, and total distance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
