Extra coaches for Samjhota Express
Lahore:
Pakistan Railways (PR) has reportedly decided to add a few extra coaches
to Samjhota Express running on the Lahore-Wahga-Attari route to facilitate
passengers between Pakistan and India. The move is being contemplated
since the operation of 'Thar Express', the second train between the two
countries, is expected to remain suspended for another eight weeks due
to heavy rains in Rajasthan. Heavy rains in Rajasthan had caused extensive
breaches resulting in further disruption of train operation, said a Pakistan
Railways press statement released yesterday. Large stretches of railway
tracks on the Munabao-Judhpur intersection had also been inundated, the
Daily Times quoted the statement as saying.
