Economical travel in trains will now be a dream. Sleeper coaches will be less in 44 trains. Railways has started increasing AC coaches by reducing the number of sleeper and general coaches.


However, the railway administration argues that this will ease the movement of trains. But, the truth is that due to the reduction of sleeper coaches, the burden on the pockets of the passengers will double. Let’s know the complete details about it.

Reducing sleeper coaches in long distance trains will increase the difficulties of general class passengers. Only two sleeper coaches will be installed in the train, while five to six coaches are being installed now. The reduction of coaches has already started.

According to the instructions of the Railway Board, now only two sleeper coaches are being installed instead of seven in a rake of 22 coaches. In AC 3, four coaches are being used more. This means that at least 300 to 400 passengers in each train will have to go in AC coaches instead of sleeper and general.

Travel will be like this

If you travel by Gorakhdham Express then the fare for sleeper from Gorakhpur to New Delhi is Rs 445 while in AC three coach fare will be Rs 1165. This is the online ticket fare. Accordingly, passengers will have to pay more than double the fare.


Railway Administration’s Argument

The logic of the railway administration behind the structure of a uniform rake is that there will be ease in the operation of trains. The rake of trains can be easily changed. To change the composition of the train, coaches have to be increased. Sometimes the problem increases due to non-availability of a coach. Passengers have to travel in another coach.

NER CPRO Pankaj Kumar Singh Rakes are being standardized. Accordingly, the composition of rakes is being made. Standardization of rakes will prevent delay in waiting for rakes. Maintenance of rakes will also take less time. Will be able to attach any rake to any train.
