— means fewer than 3 runs recorded here so far, or (at a train's starting station) a platform-berth figure we don't publish.
+1d and +2d mark a stop on a later day of the train's own run, not a later date. At Rawalpindi, +1d means the stop falls a day after the train set out from its own origin — not tomorrow's date at this station.
What the marks mean
- Arrival · Departure — scheduled local times, published Pakistan Railways timetable
- +1d, +2d — the stop falls on the 2nd (or 3rd) day of the train's own run, counting from the day it starts. It is not a date.
- Usually late here — the median delay at Rawalpindi itself over its recorded arrivals: half of its recorded arrivals were later than this. Recorded history, not today's status, and not the delay at the train's destination. A negative figure means the train typically ran early.
- Up · Down — direction as published by Pakistan Railways

Common questions
How many trains stop at Rawalpindi?
35 passenger services call at Rawalpindi on the current published timetable. 17 run up and 18 run down. That is what is booked to stop, not what stopped today: the recorded arrivals beside each train are the second half of that answer.
What time is the first train from Rawalpindi?
The first booked departure is 00:30 (Rawal Express 106DN) and the last is 20:50 (Green Line 5UP). Both are timetable times, and both exclude services that terminate here, which cannot be boarded onward.
Are trains usually late at Rawalpindi?
A typical arrival here is 57 minutes late, measured across 823 recorded arrivals (30 July 2026 to 9 October 2026). That is the median for the station as a whole, across every train that calls: an individual service can be much better or much worse, which is what the per-train figures in the timetable below show.
Which trains keep their time at Rawalpindi?
24 services have enough recorded arrivals here to publish a figure, but one of them records a median that is early rather than late. A service that typically arrives ahead of its booking has a timetable that does not match its running rather than a record of keeping time, so it is not ranked here. Of the remaining 23, Green Line 6DN does best: typically 4 minutes late on arrival at this station, over 35 recorded arrivals. Tezgam 7UP does worst, typically 296 minutes late over 34 recorded arrivals. Both figures are for arrivals at Rawalpindi itself, not for the whole of either journey.
Where can I travel to directly from Rawalpindi?
Direct passenger services from Rawalpindi end at Karachi Cantt, Lahore Jn., Peshawar Cantt, Havelian, Multan Cantt. Those are final destinations on the current timetable, so anywhere those trains call at on the way is reachable too. Each destination on this page links to that route's own delay history.
