KARACHI: Pakistan Railways on Monday resumed the 213 Up Moen-jo-Daro Express from City Station Karachi with major modifications. Prior to the suspension of train operation almost 5 months back, due to Covid-19, it was destined for ML-II track between Kotri and Rohri via Sehwan, Dadu, Larkana, Shikarpur and Sukkur, said PR officials. The restored train will now travel between Karachi and Multan thereby travelling ML-I path from Karachi to Kotri and ML-II path from Kotri to Multan enroute Dadu, Larkana, Jacobabad, Rajanpur, DG Khan and Muzaffar Garh.
Monday's departed train from City Station Karachi comprised 7 economy class coaches with a cumulative seating capacity of 616 passengers. The extension in initial and final stations of train will be enormously beneficial for the labourers and workers from interior Sindh and Southern Punjab working in Karachi as it provides them with the cheapest option for to-and-fro journey between their native place and Karachi, they said.
