The Jamalpur-Munger railway line in India is set to see an upgrade from 8-coach DEMU passenger trains to 12-coach EMU passenger trains. The Eastern Railway Malda administration is working on the transition. A key obstacle is the existing toilet building on platform number one at Jamalpur station, which needs to be...

demolished to accommodate the longer trains. The Malda administration has requested details on the length of platform number four (Munger platform) to assess its suitability for EMU operation. Previously, the General Manager of Eastern Railway visited the Jamalpur station and inspected the Munger platform, pushing for the introduction of EMU trains. However, the platform's length being insufficient led to further investigations. The Munger platform is limited to 10-coach capacity due to its length, which is restricted by the location of the toilet building. The administration had temporarily increased the number of coaches in the DEMU passenger train from 8 to 10 on April 22nd, but reverted to the earlier 8-coach configuration three months later. The introduction of 12-coach EMU trains is anticipated to alleviate overcrowding, enhance speed, and reduce diesel consumption. Passengers on the line are looking forward to the transition as they cite the current DEMU train's aged coaches and limited speed as drawbacks. According to the Eastern Railway's Chief Public Relations Officer, the EMU train will be implemented after expanding platform number four.

Jamalpur-Munger railway line pe 8-coach wali DEMU passenger train ki jagah 12-coach wali EMU passenger train aa rahi hai. Eastern Railway Malda administration yeh transition pe kaam kar raha hai. Jamalpur station ke platform number one pe existing toilet building ek baadha hai, isko demolish karna hoga EMU trains ko fit...

karne ke liye. Malda administration ne platform number four (Munger platform) ki lambai ka detail maanga hai, EMU operation ke suitability check karne ke liye. Pehle Eastern Railway ke General Manager ne Jamalpur station visit kiya tha aur Munger platform check kiya tha, EMU trains laane ke liye push kiya tha. Lekin, platform ki lambai kam hone ke wajah se aur investigation ki zarurat padi. Munger platform sirf 10-coach tak fit ho sakta hai, toilet building ki wajah se. Administration ne 22 April ko temporary tor pe DEMU passenger train ke coaches 8 se 10 kar diye the, lekin teen mahine baad pehle ki 8-coach configuration pe vapas aa gaye. 12-coach EMU trains aaane se overcrowding kam hoga, speed badhega, aur diesel kharch kam hoga. Passengers ko yeh transition ka wait hai, kyunki unhe current DEMU train ke purane coaches aur limited speed se pareshani hai. Eastern Railway ke Chief Public Relations Officer ke mutabik, platform number four ko expand karne ke baad EMU train chalu ki jayegi.
