IR RRB ALP Mock Test 2026
CEN 01/2026 is the current ALP cycle with 11,127 vacancies. Use this page to train CBT-I speed now, then keep technical and trade knowledge ready for CBT-II without relying on an unannounced exam date.
How to use RRB ALP mocks for the current cycle
Run CBT-I as a speed-and-selection paper, then review technical fundamentals separately so CBT-II does not start from zero. Keep Part-B trade theory accurate because it is qualifying, not optional.
