Indian Railways plans to double the capacity of major cities to originate new trains by 2030 to meet rising passenger demand. The initiative involves augmenting existing terminals with more platforms and facilities, identifying new terminal locations, and enhancing sectional capacity through upgrades and multitracking. This expansion will cover both suburban and non-suburban traffic across 48 major cities, with a focus on balanced capacity distribution around terminals. The plan aims for progressive improvements over the next five years.
