Western Railway Plans New Stabling Line for Simhastha 2028
The Western Railway is planning to build a new stabling line near Rajendra Nagar Railway Station in Indore.
This is to get ready for the Simhastha 2028 event, which is expected to bring many visitors to Ujjain.
The new stabling line will help park extra trains closer to Indore, reducing the pressure on existing stations.
It will also make train management easier and save on operational costs.
Currently, trains are often sent to Mhow Railway Station or parked on platforms five and six, or at Laxmibai Railway Station due to limited space.
The new facility will improve traffic control and ensure smoother operations.
