Lahore (Agencies): In a bid to enhance passenger convenience, Pakistan Railways has introduced temporary stops for three major trains at select stations, according to an official notification issued on Friday.
The Karachi-Sialkot-Karachi (9Up/10Dn) Allama Iqbal Express will now halt for two minutes at Dera Nawab Sahib railway station, and the Karachi-Peshawar Cantt-Karachi (47Up/48Dn) Rehman Baba Express will make a two-minute stop at Taxila Cantt railway station. Both stops will be implemented on a trial basis for three months.
Additionally, the Lahore-Karachi-Lahore (15Up/16Dn) Karachi Express has been granted a temporary two-minute stop at Gambat railway station for one month.
Railways officials stated that the initiative addresses public demand and aims to improve accessibility for passengers. The continuation of these stops will depend on their usage and feedback from travelers during the trial period.
Passengers are encouraged to make the most of these new stops while providing feedback to Pakistan Railways to ensure further improvements in service.
