Here’s a visual representation of the Sleeper Class (SL) coach layout used by Indian Railways. This diagram illustrates the conventional arrangement and numbering of berths found in sleeper coaches.
Understanding the Sleeper Class Layout
Coach Configuration Overview
- Sleeper Class features nine bays per coach, each with six berths arranged in a 3-tier setup (Lower, Middle, Upper), plus two side berths (Side Lower, Side Upper) running along the aisle.
- This optimizes space while offering basic overnight travel comfort.
Berth Types & Numbering
Indian Railways uses the following abbreviations to denote berth types on tickets:
- LB – Lower Berth
- MB – Middle Berth
- UB – Upper Berth
- SL – Side Lower Berth
- SU – Side Upper Berth
- (Note: Indian Railways typically shows only Window Side (WS), not explicitly mentioning “Aisle” or “Middle” seats on tickets)
Reference Scheme
The additional PDFs and seat charts available on platforms like Scribd include detailed numbering sequences (e.g., 1–80) along with berth-type breakdowns—something useful for understanding specific berth positions in a coach
