    \u2139\ufe0f Passenger Advisory<\/h2>\n
      \n
    • These were special\u2011fare reserved trains<\/strong>, featuring classes from AC 2-tier\/3-tier, Sleeper, to General classes, depending on route and demand.<\/li>\n
    • Operational priority is lower<\/strong> compared to regular trains, leading to potential delays or rescheduling during peak routing<\/li>\n
    • Reservations typically open a few days before departure. E\u2011catering and coach amenities vary across trains.<\/li>\n
    • Coach augmentation in June<\/strong> improved capacity in some major services like Rajdhani and Garib Rath, easing the summer rush<\/li>\n
    • Major pilgrimage movement during Rath Yatra 2025<\/strong> resulted in 365 additional special trains<\/strong>\u2014though separate from scheduled summer specials<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
      \n
