What’s inside:
This article informs about the new stop for the Katra-Srinagar Vande Bharat Express at Reasi station starting October 29.
Starting from October 29, the Katra-Srinagar Vande Bharat Express will make a stop at Reasi station in Jammu and Kashmir. This change is being introduced as a trial to meet the demands of local residents.
Currently, the semi-high-speed train only stops at Banihal between Katra and Srinagar. With this new stop, the train will halt at Reasi for two minutes in both directions.
The introduction of this stop is a significant move for the people in the region, as it provides easier access to train services. Passengers can now enjoy this additional convenience when traveling between Katra and Srinagar.
It’s worth noting that this is the first rail service connecting the Kashmir Valley and the Jammu region. The Prime Minister had inaugurated this Vande Bharat train service on June 6, earlier this year.
With the new stop at Reasi, train services are expected to improve for local commuters. This trial will help authorities assess the demand and plan for any further enhancements in the future.

- Katra-Srinagar Vande Bharat Express will stop at Reasi from October 29.
- The stop is a trial based on local people’s requests.
- The train will halt for two minutes in both directions.
