Railways stretches current train time table till year-end

Railway zones have issued circulars extending the current train timetable until December 31, 2024, following directives from the Railway Board. Typically, the Railways releases its working timetable, known as Trains At A Glance (TAG), before June 31, which is effective from July 1 until the next June 31.

"The Railway Board is reviewing the timings and running status of trains to enhance efficiency. Therefore, the release date of the new timetable has been extended to January 1, 2025, and the old timetable will remain in effect until then," a Railway Board official stated.

On June 27, 2024, the Railway Board issued a circular to all general managers of the 17 zones, instructing them to extend the existing TAG until December 31, 2024. Following the Board's directive, the North Central Railway issued a circular on June 28, notifying that Trains At A Glance 2024 will now take effect from January 1, 2025. The validity of the existing working timetables for Prayagraj, Jhansi, and Agra Cantt will also be extended to December 31, 2024.

According to the NCR's circular, all trains will operate according to the schedule of the existing Working Time Table-2023 and any subsequent corrections or revisions. Similarly, the North Western Railway issued a circular to the DRMs of Bikaner, Jodhpur, Jaipur, and Ajmer divisions, instructing them to follow the existing timetable. "All other divisions have implemented this directive and issued corresponding circulars to their respective divisions," the Board's official added. (Source: ET)
