Indian Railways will launch a revised train schedule on January 1, 2025, featuring new Vande Bharat Express trains, Amrit Bharat Express trains, and the Namo Bharat Rapid Rail. The current 'Train at a Glance' will be valid until December 31, 2024. IRCTC is also preparing for the Mahakumbh Mela 2025 with special trains and accommodations.
A big update has come for more than 3 crore daily train passengers of the country. Beginning on January 1, 2025, Indian Railways will publish a revised schedule. The 44th edition of 'Train at a Glance' will continue to be offered until December 31, 2024. The All India Railway Time Table-Train at a Glance (TAG), published by Indian Railways last year, went into force on October 1. TAG may also be found on Indian Railways' official website.
The Ministry of Railways intends to introduce the Namo Bharat Rapid Rail (Vande Metro), two Amrit Bharat Express trains, and all 136 Vande Bharat Express trains in 2025. To improve passenger comfort, the national transporter introduced 70 new services and 64 Vande Bharat trains last year.
