Railways targets 11 trains with 40+ hour journeys: Passengers may soon see a big change in how coaches are cleaned en route

The Railway Board has identified 11 long-distance trains, each with a journey time of more than 40 hours, for enhanced cleanliness and service monitoring. The move is aimed at ensuring that hygiene standards are maintained throughout the journey rather than only at the originating station. The Board has asked zonal railways to pay particular attention to housekeeping, toilets, waste disposal, minor repairs and other passenger amenities on these trains.
