These coaches will meet you with excellent facilities
Let me tell you that till now only three classes of AC were present in Indian Railways. Although Lalu Prasad Yadav started the Garib Rath trains as Railway Minister, there is a big difference between the coaches of the Garib Rath and the new AC-3 economy coach. The new coach of AC-3 economy is designed with excellent features and finishing. The first batch of this coach is ready and about 250 coaches will be produced this year at RCF Kapurthala.
There will be 83 berths in the
AC- 3 tier economy class with 83 berths. For this, 3 berths have been kept in place of 2 in the side. While AC-3 has 72 berths. By making room for more people in a coach, there will be a big increase in the revenue of the railway. However, its fare will be kept lower than AC-3.
Let us tell you about the specialty of
this coach- >> The berths of this coach are kept very light but strong.
>> A snack table has been provided with each berth.
>> Ports are provided for charging with each berth.
>> There is a reading light with every berth.

According to sources, in the railway plan, there is also the need to replace some sleeper class coaches with AC-3 economy coaches in many trains. With this, people can enjoy traveling in AC-3 for less money. Apart from this, it is also possible to run fully AC trains at high speed. It is believed that with the increase in demand for such coaches, railway can make big changes regarding the composition of coaches in trains and it can be a complete change in the experience of rail travel.
