Following a tragic incident where four commuters lost their lives after falling from crowded Mumbai local trains, Indian Railways has announced a redesign of its non-AC train fleet. The new design will incorporate automatically closing doors and enhanced ventilation systems. The initiative aims to improve passenger safety and comfort, addressing concerns about overcrowding and inadequate airflow. The redesigned trains are expected to be ready by November 2025 and operational by January 2026, pending necessary testing and certification. The redesign includes louvres on the doors and roof-mounted ventilation units to ensure a fresh air supply within the coaches. The new trains will also feature vestibules to facilitate passenger movement and redistribute the crowd more evenly.
