Summer Special Trains
Posted on: 25/Jul/2014 12:37:26 PM
Indian Railways plan special trains well in advance and additional coaches are attached in regular trains to clear the extra rush of passengers during summer and festival seasons keeping in view the pattern of traffic, operational feasibility and availability of resources. On a few occasions, special trains are required to be run at the last moment to clear rush due to sudden events. This is an ongoing process in Indian Railways.
This information was given by the Minister of State for Railways Shri Manoj Sinha in written reply to a question in Lok Sabha.
