"The facility known as the `De-reserved` coach has been avail; able in trains over the last few months! For daily commuters, this facility has been extremely useful!
In this facility, the passengers can undertake travel up to 100 km.
An additional fare of Rs. 20/- to Rs. 30/- will be charged for this facility along with the normal fare!
We are introducing this facility in other trains wherever possible!
