AGARTALA, Feb 4 (TIWN): Just when counting days are left for the official beginning of the BG passenger’s railway service in the state by March 31 the workers are busy in fixing the signals along the newly converted BG railway tracks. It is to be mentioned here that railway signalling is a system used to direct railway traffic and keep trains clear of each other at all times. Trains move on fixed rails, making them uniquely susceptible to collision. This susceptibility is exacerbated by the enormous weight and inertia of a train, which make it difficult to quickly stop when encountering an obstacle. Most forms of train control involve movement authority being passed from those responsible for each section of a rail network to stationmaster and to the train crew.Eyeing forward to kick off the Broad Gauge (BG) conversion work from Badarpur to Agartala, workers are busy at Agartala railway station for completing the other efficient works important for running BG train without any fault Indian Railways connectivity in India’s north eastern region will get boost with the launch of the first ever broad gauge passenger trains to Tripura.Numbers of workers are engaged in the renovation work of the Agartala railway station.
