Automatic Freight Rebate Scheme for traffic booked in empty flow directions was launched as a pilot project with effect from 01.10.2014. In order to increase passenger earnings, various measures have been taken such as introduction of new trains, enhancement of the composition of more popular trains, attachment of extra coaches in existing trains. Also special trains are run during peak seasons, festivals and special events, keeping in view the pattern of traffic, commercial justification, operational feasibility, availability of resources etc. Running of special trains keeping in view the demand on various sectors is a continuous process.
