Sealdah: শিয়ালদহ মেন শাখায় আরও ২ প্লাটফর্ম থেকে ১২ কোচের লোকাল ট্রেনের যাত্রা শুরু

Starting from July, Sealdah Station in Kolkata was planned to have all 12-coach EMU local trains running from platforms 1 to 5. However, the work was completed ahead of schedule, allowing for the operation of 12-coach EMU locals from platforms 1 to 5. While platforms 1, 2, and 5 were...

already operational, platforms 3 and 4 are now also running 12-coach trains. The yard modification and non-interlocking work were finished on June 9th, but some building work at the Dum Dum end of platforms 3 and 4 remained. This work was completed gradually without any disruption to train services, ensuring passenger convenience. Now, all platforms (1 to 5) at Sealdah can handle 12-coach local trains. The increase in 12-coach trains running on the Sealdah main and north lines will accommodate the growing transportation needs of densely populated areas like Bidhannagar, Dum Dum, Birati, Barasat, Sodpur, Barrackpore, and Naihati. This is expected to reduce overcrowding and improve the travel experience for commuters. Passengers are happy with the change, as they can now easily board trains that were previously overcrowded.

July se, Kolkata ke Sealdah Station pe plan tha ki sabhi 12-coach EMU local trains platforms 1 se 5 tak chalenge. Lekin, yeh kaam schedule se pehle complete ho gaya, aur ab platforms 1 se 5 tak 12-coach EMU locals chal rahe hain. Platforms 1, 2, aur 5 pe to pehle...

se hi chal rahe the, aur ab platforms 3 aur 4 pe bhi 12-coach trains chalna shuru ho gaye hain. Yard modification aur non-interlocking ka kaam 9 June ko complete ho gaya, lekin platforms 3 aur 4 ke Dum Dum end pe kuch building kaam baaki tha. Yaatreeyon ki suvidha ko dhyan mein rakhte hue, bina kisi block ke, yeh kaam dhuree dhreese complete kiya gaya. Ab, Sealdah ke sabhi platforms (1 se 5) 12-coach local trains handle kar sakte hain. Sealdah main aur north lines pe 12-coach trains badne se, Bidhannagar, Dum Dum, Birati, Barasat, Sodpur, Barrackpore, aur Naihati jaise densely populated areas ki badhti hui transportation needs ko pura kiya ja sakega. Isse overcrowding kam hone ki ummeed hai aur commuters ka travel experience behtar hoga. Yaatree is change se khush hain, kyonki ab woh aasani se un trains mein board kar sakte hain jo pehle overcrowded the.
