The Southern Railways, as part of Green Initiative, will discontinue the practise of pasting of reservation charts on train coaches on a trial basis for six months from March one.
However, the respective coach and berth number information would still be available at centralised locations in all the railway stations and also with the travelling ticket examiners, an official release said.
By moving towards paperless initiative, the southern railway would be able to save 28 tonne of charting paper and Rs 1.70 lakh every year, the release said.
Other efforts include encouraging E-ticketing for both reserved and unreserved tickets, it said.
