Safety Works Completed on Pendurthi-Simhachalam Railway Section
Imagine the railway tracks are like a road for trains, and the stones underneath are like the gravel.
Sometimes these stones get dirty, which can make the trains less safe.
To fix this, the railway uses a special machine called a ballast cleaning machine (BCM).
This machine cleans the stones under the tracks so the trains can run smoothly.
The railway workers did this work at night when there were fewer trains so they did not bother the passengers.
The manager, Mr. Bohra, came to watch the work to make sure everything was going well.
This work helps to keep everyone safe when they travel by train.
Safety works were carried out on the Pendurthi–Simhachalam railway section.
The works were performed at 11 pm on Friday to minimize passenger inconvenience.
Divisional Railway Manager (DRM) Lalit Bohra inspected the site.
The Ballast Cleaning Machine (BCM) was used to clean the ballast under the tracks.
The safety work aimed to enhance track stability and ensure safer train operations.
