Railway administration has taken a significant step to facilitate passengers by adding an extra Third AC coach to the Jammu Rajdhani Express. This decision comes in view of the heavy rush expected during the summer vacation period. The temporary addition aims to reduce the waiting list and provide comfort to travelers on this busy route.
What are the operational dates for the extra coach?
The railway authorities have confirmed that the addition of the extra coach is a temporary measure to tackle the seasonal crowd. Passengers can plan their travel based on the following schedule:
- The extra Third AC coach will be attached to Train Number 12426.
- This facility will be available starting from 11 April until 24 April.
- The coach is specifically being added to the Jammu Rajdhani Express service.
How will this change help the common passenger?
Uchit Singhal, Senior Divisional Commercial Manager, stated that this move is designed to handle the summer crowd effectively. By adding an extra coach, the total number of available berths increases, which directly improves the possibility of passengers getting a confirmed seat. Travelers can book their tickets for these additional berths through the IRCTC website or official reservation counters at stations. This step is expected to provide much-needed relief to those planning trips during the holiday season.
