Many times we go on a long journey and think, “I wish there would have been ATM in the train too …” There would have been no problem of keeping more cash nor fear of picking up or theft. In such a situation, he would have withdrawn cash in the moving train as soon as he needed. But now you are going to get the facility to withdraw money from ATMs during the journey in the train. Yes, you might not be sure, but the railways have prepared to start ATM service keeping in mind the convenience of passengers traveling by train.
ATM will be installed in the train, it will be easy to withdraw cash
Indian Railways has now started a unique initiative for the convenience of passengers. Now money will be withdrawn from ATMs in a moving train too. This facility is currently launched on trial mode. Initially, an ATM machine has been installed in the Panchavati Express running from Manmad to Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus (CSMT). This step has been taken to provide a new facility to the passengers during the journey, so that their journey can be more comfortable and convenient.
Facility to withdraw money during the journey
This new facility will provide relief to those passengers who do not pay online and pay all their own by cash. Along with this, this is a relief news for those who used to have trouble due to lack of online payment in the train or the cash is over. The ATM installed in the train will allow them to withdraw money during travel. With this, money will be withdrawn in the train itself in the event of any type of cash shortage during the journey, which will give the passengers an opportunity to make their journey even more pleasant.
Trial of installing ATM in trains begins
During the trial of the ATM machine to be installed in the train, railway officials are investigating whether the ATM can work properly in the moving train. Apart from this, network connectivity, security, privacy, passengers’ convenience and other important things are also being taken care of. During this trial, the main objective of the authorities is to see that during the service journey of ATM, it should work smoothly and there is no problem related to any kind of technical or safety. If this trial is successful, then ATM can be started in other trains later. Its main objective is to provide a more convenient journey to the passengers, so that they do not have to face the cash problem while traveling in trains.
The journey will be even easier
This facility will also be beneficial for those who travel long distances and avoid walking with cash. It is often seen that there is a fear of losing pocket or cash while traveling in trains. In such a situation, people will be able to make their journey more secure and comfortable with onboard ATMs. If someone needs money during the journey, then he will be able to withdraw money from ATM in the train without stopping at the station. With this type of facility, travelers can make their journey even more comfortable.
Future direction
If this trial is successful, then ATM service can be started in more trains by Indian Railways in the coming time. With this, passengers will not need to stop to the station to withdraw money during need during the journey. This will not only help the passengers, but will also give Indian Railways an opportunity to reach a new height in their services.
This new initiative of Indian Railways can prove to be a pleasant change for travelers, who used to struggle with cash problems during long journeys. This step is a symbol of serious thinking made to dedication to passengers of Indian Railways and their facilities.
