Overnight Mail and Express Trains to have on board information display

Shri Lalu Prasad said that now all overnight mail and express trains will have on-line coach indication display boards to give information about running of the trains and likely time of arrival of approaching stations continuously.

This facility would be very helpful to the passengers deboarding trains at night. The public address system which is presently available only in Rajdhani and Shatabdi trains will be made available to other select mail and express trains.

Information boards displaying on line information about train arrival-departure and platform berthing will be installed at parking lots and entrance gates besides platforms of 100 ‘A’ and ‘B’ category stations.

On-line reservation availability information boards will also be installed at reservation offices of all ‘A’ and ‘B’ category stations.
