This Will Be Done With Effect From 1st December 2017 to 13th February 2018.

In order to manage the train operations in upcoming foggy season 2017-18, Ministry of Railways has devised a detailed plan for cancellation & frequency reduction etc. of trains traversing through fog affected area. The Cancellation, Partial Cancellation Reduction in Frequency and Diversion of trains mentioned in the list (given below) will be done with effect from 1st December 2017 to 13th February 2018.

The advanced cancellation etc., is being done, so that, passengers may plan their journeys accordingly. In case of cancellation etc., full refund of fare will be given to the affected passengers. The passengers are advised to check the status of the train before undertaking their journey. The status of these trains will also be communicated to the passengers on their respective registered mobile numbers.

During the fog, the visibility becomes very low and trains have to run on a highly-restricted speed to ensure safety of the passengers which leads to considerable delays in the movement of trains.

The status of these trains will be monitored periodically keeping in view the intensity of fog and decisions to restore some of the trains may be taken, as and when operationally feasible.
