This step has been taken to complete the construction work on time and smoothly, so that passengers can get better rail facilities in future.

Phase II work is underway at Khatipura yard with the aim of modernizing the railway infrastructure and increasing capacity. This work includes activities such as track renewal, signaling system upgrade and yard capacity expansion. These improvements will help in increasing the punctuality of trains and smoothening traffic in the future.

According to the Railways, due to Khatipura yard work, temporary changes have been made in the route of the following trains—

Ranikhet Express – Now this train will operate on an alternate route instead of its regular route.

Shalimar Express – This train will also pass through a changed route during the construction work.

Marudhar Express – The route of this train has also been changed temporarily.

Railways has released new route list and timetable for all the affected trains, which passengers can check from the official website of Railways and station notice boards.

Advice for passengers

The railway administration has appealed to the passengers to check the latest information related to their destination and route before traveling. The new timetable and route information is available on online portals, helpline numbers and stations. Passengers have also been advised to check the real-time updates of the train before departure on the day of travel, so that any inconvenience can be avoided.

Future benefits

Although this temporary change may cause inconvenience to some passengers, after completion of Khatipura Phase-2 work, passengers will get better facilities, timely running of trains and smooth travel experience. Railways believes that this short-term inconvenience is necessary for long-term benefits.
