About the railway



Indian Railways (IR) is India's national railway system operated by the Ministry of Railways. It is run by the government as a public good and manages the fourth largest railway network in the world by size, with a route length of 95,981-kilometre (59,640 mi) as of March 2019. About 61.62% of the routes are electrified with 25 kV 50 Hz AC electric traction while 33% of them are double or multi-tracked.[7]

In the fiscal year ending March 2018, IR carried 8.26 billion passengers and transported 1.16 billion tonnes of freight.[2] In the fiscal year 2017–18, IR is projected to have revenue of ₹1.874 trillion (US$26 billion), consisting of ₹1.175 trillion (US$16 billion) in freight revenue and ₹501.25 billion (US$7.0 billion) in passenger revenue, with an operating ratio of 96.0 percent.[2]

Indian Railway (IR) runs more than 20,000 passenger trains daily, on both long-distance and suburban routes, from 7,321 stations across India.[7] The trains have a five-digit and four-digit numbering system. Mail or Express trains, the most common types, run at an average speed of 50.6 kilometres per hour (31.4 mph).[8] Most premium passenger trains like Rajdhani Express and Shatabdi Express run at a peak speed of 140–150 km/h (87–93 mph) with Gatiman Express between New Delhi and Jhansi touching a peak speed of 160 km/h (99 mph). Indian railways also runs an indigenously built semi-high speed train called Vande Bharat (also known as Train-18)" between Delhi and Varanasi or Katra which clocks a maximum track speed of 180 km/h (110 mph). In the freight segment, IR runs more than 9,200 trains daily. The average speed of freight trains is around 24 km/h (15 mph).[9] Maximum speed of freight trains varies from 60 to 75 km/h (37 to 47 mph) depending on their axle load with "container special" trains running at a peak speed of 100 km/h (62 mph).

As of March 2019, Indian Railways' rolling stock consisted of 289,185 freight wagons, 55,258 passenger coaches and 12,108 Diesel and Electric locomotives.[7] IR owns locomotive and coach-production facilities at several locations in India. Being the world's eighth-largest employer, it had 1.227 million employees as of March 2019.[7]



The government has committed to electrify its entire rail network by 2023, and become a "net-zero railway" by 2030.[10] So far Indian Railways has electrified 39,866 RKMs which accounts for about 63% of total Route Kilometers on Indian Railways. Presently about 57% of passenger traffic and about 65% of freight traffic is being carried on electric traction. It is planned to electrify all BG routes of IR by 2024.
