Indian Railways has notified 6,181 special trains to facilitate the return journey of passengers after the Chhath Puja festivities. The winter festival rush timetable follows the earlier-run 900 special train services scheduled over the next three days to meet increased demand.

To ease passenger congestion, over 30 stations across Bihar and Uttar Pradesh have been equipped with weather-proof holding areas, additional coaches attached to existing services, and enhancements in passenger amenities like ticketing counters and mobile-based ticketing.
