Special trains to run on many routes, preparing to give confirmed tickets to around 14,000 passengers
AUG 22 (WTN) - West Central Railway is going to run 20 special trains to give the confirm ticket to about 14 thousand passengers during festivals. Railways have taken this step in view of the situation of the no-room being created from the regular trains in Raksha bandhan, Dussehra, Deepawali and Chhath Puja on the regular trains.
In many trains, the waiting list has so far reached between 50 and 100. Therefore, the West Central Railway has made preparations to run more than 20 special trains from Bhopal and Kota divisions, including Jabalpur. These special trains will be run towards major routes like Jabalpur to Patna, Mumbai, Pune, Gaya and Raipur.
However, due to the busy route, it is very difficult to get empty track for special trains. There is average of 10 sleeper coaches in a special train. According to 72 seats in each coach, more than 14 thousand passengers can be given confirmed tickets in 20 special trains.
