Commuter trains will run on short distances from tomorrow (July 25, 2024), Additional Director General of Bangladesh Railway Md Arifuzzaman said on Wednesday (24 July).
“One or two commuter trains will operate from tomorrow on short distance routes. It will take time to resume operation of inter-city trains once the current situation improves,” he told the media.
Besides, network disruption also causes delay of train services as tickets are available online, he added.
Under the circumstances, commuter trains will operate on the Dhaka-Narayanganj and Ishwardi routes while the authorities will try their level best to resume commuter trains on Dhaka-Joydebpur route, he said.
The Burimari commuter train will operate from Lalmonirhat district, said the additional DG.
He also said that freight trains or oil-carrying trains were operating since Monday.
