These trains will pass through several major stations, including Multan, Sahiwal, Faisalabad, Sargodha, Rohri, Bahawalpur, Khanpur, and Jhelum, to accommodate travelers from different parts of the country.
The special trains will include economy class coaches along with power vans for passenger comfort. The railway administration has directed all concerned divisions to complete all operational arrangements for timely and smooth train services.
Officials have also instructed that train speeds will remain within approved sectional limits and will not exceed 105 kilometres per hour for safety reasons. Passengers are advised to book their tickets in advance as these special trains are expected to be fully booked quickly.
