Railways to Launch Special Trains for Summer Travel
The railway is putting extra trains on the tracks to help people travel during the busy summer season.
They will run special trains on four different routes, including ones from Muzaffarpur to Anand Vihar, Delhi to Darbhanga, New Delhi to Saharsa, and Udhna to Gaya.
These trains will start running between mid-May and late July, depending on the specific route.
This should provide more seats and make it easier for people to travel to different cities and towns, helping to manage the large number of passengers during the summer months.
The plan is to help handle the increased demand for travel during this period.
The Railways will operate four additional pairs of summer special trains.
Trains will run on the Muzaffarpur-Anand Vihar, Delhi-Darbhanga, New Delhi-Saharsa, and Udhna-Gaya routes.
The Muzaffarpur-Anand Vihar train will operate from May 24 to July 19.
The Delhi-Darbhanga train service will run from May 19 to July 10.
The services aim to manage the summer travel rush.
