Danapur Rail Mandal is bringing good news for daily passengers traveling between Ara, Patna, and Bhabhua. The Patna-Ara-Bhabhua Road Intercity Express (13249/50) will soon stop using old blue coaches. The train will now run with modern red LHB coaches for a safer and better ride. This change will help thousands of students and office goers who travel on this route every day. The railway administration has prepared for this upgrade to provide a comfortable experience.
What are the benefits of new LHB coaches?
The new Link Hofmann Busch (LHB) coaches are considered much safer than the old ICF blue coaches. These red coaches have a special design that prevents them from climbing over each other during any accident. This anti-climbing feature ensures better safety for passengers.
These coaches also come with disc brakes and a better suspension system. This means passengers will feel fewer jerks and hear less noise during the journey. The ride will become much smoother compared to the old coaches, making the daily commute less tiring for people.
Will other trains also get these new coaches?
Yes, the benefit extends beyond just the Intercity Express due to rack sharing arrangements. The Patna-Sasaram Passenger and Kamala Ganga Intercity Express will also use these new rakes. This means passengers on these routes will also get to travel in modern coaches.
While the exact date for the start of operations is not announced yet, reports suggest the change will happen very soon. There is no official information regarding any change in ticket prices or new rules for passengers at this moment.
