Indian Railways Enhances Freight Capacity with Dedicated Freight Corridor Expansion

Indian Railways is enhancing freight capacity through the Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC) network, setting a new record with 892 train interchanges in a single day, improving operational efficiency and reducing congestion on conventional lines. Rising freight demand driven by industry growth and e-commerce is prompting infrastructure expansion, technology adoption, and increased investment, particularly on high-density routes like the Eastern and Western DFCs, to support faster, reliable, and cost-effective goods movement across India.
