The quota generally operates from originating station of a train route and only one Pooled Quota is there for entire run. The Pooled Quota is usually selected for the passengers travelling from the originating station to one or few stations short of the terminating station, or from a midway station to the terminating station, or between two stations coming midway of the entire route.

RLWL Remote Location Waiting List ticket is issued for the stations between the originating and terminating stations. Usually these are important towns or cities of that particular route.
