To ensure smooth running of railway operations in foggy weather, Indian railways has procured approximately 20.000 navigation devices specifically for foggy weather.
Indian Railways' provision of navigation devices in foggy weather is an important step towards improving the reliability and safety of train services.
Foggy weather conditions in India during the winter months affect many trains, especially in the northern parts of the country. As visibility decreases considerably in foggy weather, it becomes difficult for trains to move safely. This may cause train services to be disrupted and passengers to suffer.
Navigation devices provided by Indian Railways will help drivers operate the train in heavy fog conditions. These devices work based on GPS and constantly track the location and direction of the train. Using these devices, drivers will be able to ensure the safe movement of the train.
Providing navigation devices is an indication of the importance Indian Railways attaches to passenger safety. These devices will help prevent disruption of train services and ensure passengers travel safely.
In order to use navigation devices effectively, machinists need to learn how to use these devices. Railways will provide the necessary training for the use of these devices.
Providing navigation devices is part of Indian Railways' efforts to improve railway safety. Railways continue to increase the reliability and safety of train services with such studies.
