RRB ALP (CEN 01/2025): CBAT city intimation link live from 20 October 2026; CBAT tentatively on 30 October 2026
The Railway Recruitment Boards' listing for CEN 01/2025 (Assistant Loco Pilot) carries a link, dated 20-10-2026, for downloading the City Intimation for the Computer Based Aptitude Test (CBAT); the listing says the link goes live at 18:00 hrs on 20-10-2026. The RRBs' notice on the CBAT schedule gives the tentative exam date as 30.10.2026, says SC/ST candidates can download their Travel Authority through the same link, and says e-call letters can be downloaded about 4 days before the exam date shown in the city intimation. Candidates must bring the same original photo identity document mentioned in their application and the Vision Certificate in original in the prescribed format (Annexure VIA of CEN 01/2025), failing which they will not be allowed to attend the CBAT, and are asked to keep their Aadhaar unlocked in the UIDAI system before coming to the exam centre.

What this means for you
Download the city intimation as soon as you can: it shows your own CBAT date and city, and the 30 October date in the schedule is only tentative, so do not plan around it until you have seen your slip. If your city is far, book travel early; SC/ST candidates can download the Travel Authority from the same link. The e-call letter comes only about 4 days before your exam date, so check again then. Keep the Vision Certificate ready in original in the exact Annexure VIA format, because candidates without it are not allowed to take the test, carry the same photo ID you gave in your application, and make sure your Aadhaar is unlocked before exam day.
