The Railways had previously announced plans to operate numerous special trains during the summer and festival seasons. However, starting January 1, 2025, 48 special trains will be converted into regular services with permanent train numbers. It’s important to note that special trains typically have higher fares compared to conventional trains. By making this change, it is expected that fares may be reduced.
