['The Railway Recruitment Boards (RRBs) under the Ministry of Railways have issued Centralised Employment Notice (CEN) No. 08/2026 for the post of Station Master.

The indicative notice appeared in Employment News on 24.10.2026 and online applications open on 27.10.2026.', 'Vacancy note (read carefully): the CEN summary table states 1,215 Station Master posts, but the RRB-wise and zone-wise distribution in Annexure-B of the same CEN adds up to 1,265 posts (UR 542, SC 176, ST 104, OBC 296, EWS 147, including 133 ExSM). Candidates should treat the RRB-wise Annexure-B distribution as the working break-up and watch the official RRB websites for any corrigendum on the total.', "Important dates: online applications 27.10.2026 to 25.11.2026 (23:59 hrs); last date for fee payment 27.11.2026; modification window for corrections 28.11.2026 to 07.12.2026 on payment of a Rs. 250 modification fee per occasion (details in the 'Create an Account' form and the chosen RRB cannot be changed).", 'Selection is a single-stage Computer Based Test (CBT) of 100 questions / 100 marks in 120 minutes (Basic Science, Mathematics and Analytical Capability 60 marks; Logical Capability 20 marks; Mental Reasoning 20 marks; negative marking 1/3 mark per wrong answer; qualifying marks UR/EWS 40%, OBC-NCL 30%, SC 30%, ST 25%), followed by the Computer Based Aptitude Test (CBAT) for candidates shortlisted at 8 times the vacancies (minimum T-Score 42 in each test battery, no negative marking in CBAT), then Document Verification and Medical Examination (A-2). Final merit carries 70% weightage for CBT and 30% for CBAT.', "Applications go to only ONE RRB of the candidate's choice; multiple applications lead to rejection of all applications and debarment. Candidates must first 'Create an Account' on the RRB portal (existing accounts from CENs of 2024/2025/2026 can be reused), authenticate identity via DigiLocker/Aadhaar where possible, and note that the application module captures a live photograph during form filling (no pre-existing photograph upload).
