As winter engulfs the capital, the train scheduled has been affected in most of North India bringing down the visibility to zero. 15 trains arriving late & 12 cancelled due to decreased visibility/ operational reasons. With cold waves hitting the national capital, the city continued to shudder under the effect of cold, with fog shrouding many areas of the city.
In the wake of the trains being delayed, Railways has sent out more than 33 lakh text messages to passengers alerting them about their trains being delayed for over an hour. The service was started last month for 102 premium trains on November 3 and till December 7. Passengers of 23 pairs of Rajdhani and 26 pairs of Shatabdi and one pair each of Tejas and Gatiman trains have received 33,08,632 SMSes sent out by the Railways at its own expense.
