Railway’s big decision
It is worth noting that Indian Railways had earlier provided HHT devices to TTs in some premium trains (Rajdhani, Shatabdi) under a pilot project. This brought great relief to the passengers. Due to this, after the waiting or RAC ticket chart of the passengers were automatically confirmed in the moving train and messages reached them. After this, after its success, Indian Railways has given 5850 HHT devices to TT in 559 trains. According to the information given by the Railways, gradually the device will be installed in all Mail Express trains along with premium trains.
