RLWL stands for Remote location waiting list, a rail and transit abbreviation.
Indian Railways waiting-list category for passengers boarding at important intermediate stations along a route, which have their own small quotas. RLWL tickets get confirmed only from cancellations within that station's quota, so chances are lower than GNWL.
Example: Our RLWL 8 from Itarsi never cleared, so we took a bus instead.
Usage notes
RLWL is used for busy intermediate stations that receive a separate quota. Confirmation from the main general quota does not apply. Travelers often book from the origin station instead to get a GNWL ticket with better odds, boarding later.
