are mentioned below.

schedule and route maps of almost every express/mail train connecting every
station across the country. Trains at a Glance is one of such books.

to read the table, since you to get familiar with Station and train number
indices, Moreover, they do not possess information regarding special trains and cannot display the current PNR Status or numbers.
