Pakistan Railways will roll out a new high-tech business train on July 19, featuring 28 digitally equipped coaches, complimentary Wi-Fi, and an international-standard dining car. The train aims to provide passengers with a significantly upgraded travel experience.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is scheduled to inaugurate the new service in Lahore. The launch marks a key milestone in Pakistan Railways’ broader modernization strategy.
As part of its reform agenda, Pakistan Railways is introducing digital ticketing systems and improved onboard services, along with upgraded facilities at stations nationwide. The goal is to boost passenger satisfaction and improve operational efficiency across the board.
Separately, the Railways Ministry has confirmed that the department earned over Rs 3.95 billion from brake and luggage van operations in the past three years. A portion of this revenue was generated through outsourcing services to private contractors via open tenders.
Officials stated that the outsourcing initiative, which includes managing luggage vans, follows a transparent bidding process to ensure accountability and high-quality service.
