More and more passenger & freight carrying trains will pass through these sections with full pace without losing its punctuality. Traders and commuters travelling in between this section will be benefitted as the travel time will reduce. Work on electrification projects on N. F. Railway is in full swing.  Electrification will significantly improve the mobility of trains in NFR.
