Hello
The railway has allotted additional coaches for the Thiruvananthapuram-Kozhikode Janshatabdi Express via Alappuzha.
Earlier, Sabari Express stopped at Shoranur after Thrissur while heading to Secunderabad. From now on, it will have a new stop at Wadakkanchery after Thrissur as the train would be avoiding Shoranur.
For a long, there was no direct train to Rameswaram from Kerala.
After the announcement of relaxation in lockdown restrictions, the railways granted permission for travelling without reservation upto 40 per cent to 50 per cent in express trains.
Ever since Kottayam station started, this will be the first time that an express service has begun in Kottayam’s name.
With the doubling of tracks, more express trains can be started from Kottayam.
Compared to 72 berths in a sleeper coach, this new AC coach will have 83 berths, but the number of berths in a coupe will remain the same.
The truck driver has been seriously injured in the accident.
