झारखंड की  "एंबुलेंस ट्रेन" के रूट पर स्पेशल क्लोन ट्रेन की मांग पर  आया बड़ा अपडेट

There is a push to introduce a clone special train on the route of the 'Ambulance Train' of Jharkhand, which is the Dhanbad - Alappuzha Express. This train is popular as it connects people from Dhanbad, Giridih, Deoghar, Jamtara, Dumka, and Godda to the CMC Vellore Hospital in Tamil Nadu, as...

well as aiding workers going to South India. The need for a clone train arises because of the increasing waiting list on the Dhanbad - Alappuzha Express, due to the suspension of other special trains running between Dhanbad and Tambaram/Coimbatore. The Dhanbad railway division has proposed this to the East Central Railway headquarters in Hajipur, and while there were attempts last year, the request was denied. This year, with the demand rising due to the closure of six special trains operating during summer vacation, the railway division is pushing for the clone train to ease the burden on the regular train, which is also crucial for medical travel, especially for patients going to CMC Vellore.

Jharkhand ka 'Ambulance Train', yaani Dhanbad - Alappuzha Express ke route pe ek clone special train chalane ki baat chal rahi hai. Ye train Dhanbad, Giridih, Deoghar, Jamtara, Dumka aur Godda ke logo ko Tamil Nadu ke CMC Vellore Hospital tak lekar jaati hai, aur South India jaane wale workers ko...

bhi help karti hai. Clone train ki zarurat isliye hai kyunki Dhanbad se Tambaram/Coimbatore chalne wali aur special trains band hone ke baad Dhanbad - Alappuzha Express ki waiting list bahut lambi ho gayi hai. Dhanbad railway division ne is baat ke liye Hajipur ke East Central Railway headquarters ko proposal bheja hai. Pichhle saal bhi ye request ki gayi thi, lekin train nahi mili. Is baal summer vacation mein chalne wali chhe special trains band hone ke baad, Dhanbad se Alappuzha jaane wali regular train pe bahut pressure aa gaya hai. Ye train medical travel ke liye bhi bahut important hai, especially CMC Vellore jaane wale patients ke liye.

धनबाद-एलेप्पी एक्सप्रेस की रूट पर जल्द चलेगी स्पेशल क्लोन ट्रेन

The Dhanbad Division of East Central Railway is proposing a new 'clone' special train on the Dhanbad-Alleppey Express route.

and South India, especially for those traveling to CMC Vellore, and is often called the 'ambulance train'. The train has been experiencing overcrowding in both sleeper and general compartments due to the shortage of coaches. The proposal for a clone train aims to address these issues and provide relief to passengers. The train will run once approved by the Railway Board.

Dhanbad se Alleppey Express ke route pe ek nayi 'clone' special train chalane ka proposal East Central Railway ke Dhanbad Division ne banaya hai.

ho gayi. Alleppey Express Jharkhand aur South India ke beech ek important link hai, especially CMC Vellore jaane walon ke liye, aur isko 'ambulance train' bhi bolte hain. Train mein sleeper aur general compartment mein bahut bheed hai, kyunki coaches kam hain. Clone train ka proposal in issues ko solve karne aur passengers ko relief dene ke liye hai. Railway Board se approval milne pe train chalegi.

एलेप्पी एक्सप्रेस में बोगी बढ़ाने की उम्मीद पर फिरा पानी

The proposal to add a coach to the Alleppey Express, the only train running between Dhanbad and South India, has been rejected by the Southern Railway due to technical reasons. The Dhanbad Railway Division had been trying to add a coach for a while, even submitting a proposal to the Railway...

Board. The current 21-coach Alleppey Express includes one First AC, four Second AC, six Third AC, five Sleeper, and two General coaches, along with a pantry car and SLR. Adding a coach would be problematic as many stations on the 79-stop route have short platforms unable to accommodate the train with an additional coach. The Alleppey Express, which used to consist of 14 coaches from Dhanbad and was linked with coaches from Tatanagar at Rourkela to form a 22-coach train, was later converted to LHB coaches. While the train initially had 12 sleeper coaches, the number was reduced to five. The Alleppey Express, despite its 2535 km journey and 75 stops, is not classified as a superfast train. The train is known to be often full due to high demand for seats to CMC Vellore, particularly those booked at the last minute, and the limited 5-minute stop at the destination results in inconvenience for patients.

Dhanbad se South India jaane wali ekmatr train Alleppey Express mein ek bogi badhaane ka idea Southern Railway ne technical reasons ke wajah se reject kar diya. Dhanbad Rail Mandal ne kai saal se ek bogi add karne ki koshish kar rahi thi, aur Railway Board ko bhi proposal bheja tha....
more...
Abhi 21 bogi wali Alleppey Express mein ek First AC, chaar Second AC, chhe Third AC, paanch Sleeper, aur do General bogiyan hain, saath mein pantry car aur SLR bhi hai. Bogi badhaane se problem ye aayegi ki 79 station waale route mein se bahut saare station ke platform chhote hain, aur un par ek bogi add karne ke baad train nahi ruk payegi. Alleppey Express pehle Dhanbad se 14 bogiyan chalta tha, jiska link Tatanagar se aane wali bogiyon se Rourkela mein jod diya jata tha aur 22 bogiyon wali train ban jata tha. Baad mein LHB bogiyan add ki gayi aur train mein 12 sleeper bogiyan thi, lekin ab five reh gayi hain. 2535 km ka journey aur 75 stop hone ke baad bhi, Alleppey Express ko superfast train ka status nahi mila. Train bahut zyada bhari rehti hai, especially CMC Vellore jaane waale passengers ke liye, aur last minute booking bahut zyada hoti hai. Destination pe 5 minute ka stop bhi bahut kam hai, aur patients ko bahut problem hota hai.

Rail-track doubling through Alappuzha: Land owners in Aroor demand a better due

Residents in Aroor are concerned about the impact of the second rail track construction, particularly the 20-ft high retention wall that will be built close to many houses and buildings. The Aroor-based Association of Rail Doubling Affected (ARDA) has raised several concerns, including lack of access to leftover land, blocked pathways...

due to the wall, and the need for alternative routes. They also request relaxation in construction norms for those who have surrendered land for the second time. The Railway, however, maintains that only necessary land is acquired and that such demands often lead to litigation. The project, aiming for speedy completion, has divided the 69 km Ernakulam-Ambalappuzha corridor into three reaches. The Railway expects to complete land acquisition by 2024, followed by track laying which could take another two years.

Aroor mein rehne waale logon ko doosre rail track ke construction se pareshani ho rahi hai, khass kar ke 20-foot uncha retention wall jo kai gharon aur buildings ke paas banaya jaa raha hai. Aroor-based Association of Rail Doubling Affected (ARDA) ne kai baatein uthayi hain, jaise ki leftover land tak...
more...
pahunchne ki mushkil, wall ki wajah se pathways band ho jaana, aur alternative routes ki zarurat. Unhone aise logon ke liye construction norms mein relaxation ki bhi maang ki hai jinhone dusri baar apni zameen di hai. Railway ka kehna hai ki sirf zaruri zameen hi li jaati hai aur aise demands se aksar litigation hota hai. Project jaldi complete karne ke liye 69 km Ernakulam-Ambalappuzha corridor ko teen reaches mein divide kiya gaya hai. Railway ko ummeed hai ki land acquisition 2024 tak complete ho jaayega, uske baad track lay karne mein aur do saal lag sakte hain.
