Revamp: PR looks to upgrade facilities

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Railways would upgrade waiting halls at 16 major stations by installing air-conditioners, internet kiosks, televisions and other facilities, said an official of the Ministry of Railways. “In addition, air-conditioned waiting rooms for ladies and gents have been constructed at the Lahore Railway Station,” he added. “No sub-standard food or other items are being sold,” the official said, responding to a question. “Pakistan Railways has introduced a new catering policy whereby the sale of sub-standard food and other items has been completely eliminated.”

He said a system of checking has also been put in place to ensure quality and prices of eatables being sold at the railway stations. The selected 16 stations to be upgraded include Karachi City, Karachi Cantonment, Hyderabad, Sukkur, Bahawalpur, Sahiwal, Okara, Raiwind, Lahore, Gujranwala, Rawalpindi, Hassanabdal, Nankana Sahib, Narowal, Peshawar and Quetta. “The scope of up-gradation will cover all allied amenities for the convenience of passengers,” added the official.

Well if the tracks are getting overhauled, or new ones bieng laid, then why is the speed restricted at 120~160 kmph? A little bit more funding and they can go all the way to 220~ 240kmph. There would be a drastic cut in the travel time of the 1700+km journey.

They need to straighten the tracks and rebuild the British era old and crumbling rail bridges to accomodate high speed trains.

in the 60s Ayub Khan inaugurated the electric track from Lahore to khanewal, however after him no one cared to continue his efforts. the track still exists.

Power plants that run on fuel are being converted into LNG based power plants

Why Should only Lahoris Benefit ?? Why Not Whole Pakistan ?? This Train is a Much better option than so called Orange train Project in Lahore. Govt should think about whole Pakistan not Just Lahore. This train will benefit whole Pakistan whereas Orange will get Lahoris to Qeemay walay Naan shop faster.
