LAHORE (NNI): Pakistan Railways has announced to run four special trains on the occasion of Eid-ul-Azha across the country.

According to the railways official, the special trains will run from Quetta, Peshawar, Rawalpindi, Lahore and Karachi.

The purpose is to facilitate people to celebrate with their families. In the past due to uncertainty of the railways locomotives and availability to diesel, resulting in trains running late, people shifted to travel by buses.

The Railways authorities say now they have sufficient number of new railways engines and expect that maximum number of people particularly from Karachi and Quetta would travel to up country.
