Hisar-Tirupati Express Gets Extra AC Coach

The Indian Railways has decided to temporarily add an air-conditioned coach to the Hisar–Tirupati Express, which operates via the Bhopal Division.

This move is aimed at managing the expected rise in passenger traffic and ensuring a smooth and comfortable journey for passengers.

As part of the temporary arrangement, one Third AC coach will be added to Train No. 14723 Hisar–Tirupati Express for trains departing from Hisar between August 22 and August 29, 2026.

Similarly, one Third AC coach will be added to Train No. 14724 Tirupati–Hisar Express for trains departing from Tirupati between August 24 and August 31, 2026.

The additional coach will increase the number of reserved berths available to passengers during the period of high passenger traffic.

This temporary augmentation has been planned keeping in mind the expected demand during the period.

Passengers travelling on the route can benefit from the additional AC berths made available through this arrangement.

The Bhopal Division of West Central Railway has also implemented a new token distribution system for Tatkal reservations at all reservation centres across the division from August 1, 2026.

Under the system, tokens for Tatkal ticket bookings were distributed to passengers within specified time slots.

The introduction of the extra coach and the token distribution system are expected to make the journey more convenient for passengers.

The Railways' decision to temporarily add an extra coach to the Hisar–Tirupati Express is a welcome move, especially during the period of high passenger traffic.

It will help more passengers secure reserved seats and make their journey more comfortable.

The move is also expected to reduce the waitlist and make the journey more enjoyable for passengers.

Overall, the temporary augmentation of the extra coach and the introduction of the token distribution system are positive steps taken by the Railways to improve the travel experience of passengers.
