Continuing with its efforts to extend more facilities to passengers, Indian Railway Catering and Tourism Corporation (IRCTC) has launched an online booking facility for retiring rooms at railway stations. 

"Any passenger with the PNR of a confirmed or RAC ticket may make an online booking of a retiring room. The ticket may either be a counter ticket or e-ticket. The booking can be made for all the passengers on the ticket," said a senior IRCTC official. 

Currently, the system is being launched only for the retiring rooms at Mumbai, Bangalore & Baroda. 

The facility will gradually be extended to major stations, like Delhi and Kolkata, and important tourist destinations. 

The online booking facility has been launched for both the IRCTC's tourism website (www.Railtourismindia.Com) and e-ticketing website (www.Irctc.Co.In).
