Pakistan Railways has decided to operate three special trains ahead of Eid-ul-Adha as part of preparations for the expected surge in passenger traffic during the festive holidays. The additional train services are intended to help travelers reach their hometowns more conveniently and reduce overcrowding on regular routes.
According to railway officials, the special trains will operate on major intercity routes connecting key urban centers with different regions of the country. Authorities say the schedule has been designed to accommodate the increased number of passengers traveling before and after Eid celebrations.
Every year, Eid-ul-Adha witnesses a sharp rise in travel demand as thousands of people leave major cities to celebrate with their families. Transport terminals and railway stations often experience heavy crowds during this period, prompting Pakistan Railways to introduce extra services.
Officials stated that additional staff and operational arrangements are also being prepared to manage passenger flow and ensure smoother travel operations. Ticket booking and reservation systems are expected to remain under close monitoring to avoid overcrowding and travel disruptions.
Passengers have generally welcomed the decision, saying the extra train services could help ease travel difficulties and reduce pressure on public transport. Many travelers prefer railways during Eid holidays due to affordability and long-distance connectivity.
Pakistan Railways frequently launches special Eid trains during major religious festivals to improve travel convenience and support the growing number of holiday passengers across the country.
