एक साल में 61 लाख यात्री बढ़े, स्पेशल ट्रेनों ने संभाली कमानThe North Eastern Railway (NER) saw a record increase of 61 lakh passengers in 2024, up from 3.47 crore passengers in the April-June period of 2023. This represents a 20% increase year-on-year, the highest ever for the NER. The surge in passenger numbers led to the operation of over 200 special...

This is attributed to yard remodeling, electrification, and track strengthening. The increased train volume, along with doubled freight traffic, has strained capacity. Measures like extending the terminus of Gorakhpur-bound trains to alleviate overcrowding are under consideration. Daily passenger count has risen from 55-60 thousand in 2022-23 to 75-80 thousand in 2024. Station remodeling is ongoing to cater to this growth. Electrification has boosted average train speeds. Gorakhpur Junction, remodeled in 2013-14, boasts 10 platforms and a doubled main line. However, despite the 150-160 train capacity, the track now handles 250-260 trains, leading to crowding, especially during festivals. Confirming tickets is becoming a challenge.

Chhapra-Gorakhpur-Barabanki 425 kilometer ki main par in dinon 150 ki bajaye 260 trains ho gayi hain. Halaanki Barabanki-Gorakhpur-Chhapra 425 km lambay marg par lines toh badhi nahi, lekin NER ne yard remodeling, raftar, vidyutikaran aur patries ko majboot kar trains ki number badha li hai. 150 se 160 trains ki kshamata wale track (rail line) par 250 se 260 trains chal rahi hain. Malgadiyon ki number dogunee hone ke saath aatirik special trains bhi chalne lagi hain. Trains ki number atyadhik ho jaane ki wajah se ab nayi train ko track par utarne ke liye kaafi mashqkat karni pad rahi hai. Trains ki isi bheed ko kam karne ke liye Gorakhpur aakar samapt hone wali trains ko aage ke stations par badhane ki planning chal rahi hai. Passengers ki number 75 se 80 hazar ke kareeb hai. 2022-23 mein jahan rozana aaukat passengers ki number 55 se 60 hazar ke beech thi, wahi is saal yeh number badhkar 75 se 80 hazar ho gayi hai. Passengers ki badhti number aur trains ki number ko dekhte hue hi station ke remodeling kiya ja raha hai. NER mein vidyutikaran pura karne ke baad trains ki aaukat raftar mein izafa hua hai. 2013-14 mein Gorakhpur junction ke yard ki remodeling hui thi. Us samay junction par das platforms banne ke saath mukhya marg ka douhrikaran bhi pura ho gaya tha. Remodeling ke baad Gorakhpur cantt se Gorakhpur junction par trains ke pravesh ki kshamata 150 se 160 thi. Yard wahi hai, rail lines wahi hain, lekin trains ki number badh gayi hai. Iske baad bhi tyohaar ke samay gaadiyan kam pad ja rahi hain. Niyamit hi nahi, special bhi full chal rahi hain. Confirm ticket ke liye maramari machi hui hai.
