Most people must have traveled by train. We choose our favorite car from many trains running between two cities to cover our short and long distances, but have you ever wondered why railway passenger, mail and express why do different vehicles run on the same route? Or why not drive vehicles with the same name? If you do not know the answer to these questions, then let us understand what is the difference between mail, express or superfast trains and how the railway decides the category of a train.
Railways run passenger trains for very short distances. Most of the coaches in these passenger trains are normal category and they walk on every small and big stations on the way. For this reason, the speed of these passenger trains is also very low.
In the olden times, railway trains used to put a post box, through which mail was sent. For this reason, he was named Mel Express. Nowadays these mail boxes have been removed from trains, but they are still called Mail Express. The speed of these mail trains is not different from express trains. On an average, they run at a speed of 50 km per hour and stop at many stations in the middle. The number of these trains usually starts at 123. Express trains run slightly slower than superfast trains and slightly faster than mail. Their average speed is 55 km per hour. But these express trains do not stop at every station compared to the mail, so they reach their destination and time.
Superfast train
Superfast train runs much faster than mail or express and its stoppage is also less than these two trains. A superfast train can usually run at 100 km per hour or faster. Their fare is also higher than a mail-expenses or express train. Most these trains travel long distances.
