WDFC की रेल पटरी के ऊपर दादरी से JNPT तक कैसे दौड़ रही है Heavy Haul Double Stack Container Train
India’s Dedicated Freight Corridors (DFCs) are transforming freight transportation by separating goods trains from passenger services, helping reduce congestion, improve speeds and lower logistics costs. Freight trains on DFCs can operate at around 70–80 kmph, compared with nearly 25 kmph on conventional routes. Dedicated tracks reduce waiting at loops and sidings, improving journey times and schedule reliability. The Western Dedicated Freight Corridor is fully electrified and supports double-stack container trains, 25-tonne axle loads and freight trains up to 1.5 kilometres long. By shifting freight from congested rail routes and highways, DFCs can reduce fuel consumption, road congestion and carbon emissions while strengthening India’s logistics and supply-chain network.
