Railways fares for AC sleeper and AC business class have been decreased, while the fare for economy class remains unchanged.

During a news conference at the Railways headquarters here, Federal Minister for Railways Khawaja Saad Rafique announced the decision to decrease fares. For the next three months, fares on all trains excluding the Karakorum Express will be decreased by 17-57 percent.

i travelled from Pindi to Karachi in Tezgam business AC and it was shandar and fare was 4780 per person. Travelled from khi to Lahore by Shalimar in lower AC and fare was 3000/- per person but shalimar disappointed us as it reached Lahore in 30 hours. The compartment was open like economy class and bathrooms were very dirty but the AC remained turned on even when train stopped for long times.

adnanrail (adnanrail) 2013-07-31 11:36:39 +0500 #13

Tezgam is the best train to Travel from Karachi to Rawalpindi.

adnanrail (adnanrail) 2013-07-31 11:48:57 +0500 #14

Business Express all classes are consisting on AC Business coaches. Business class has LCD TV and also serve launch and breakfast. Budget class has LCD TV but not serve launch and breakfast. Smart class don't have LCD TV and don't serve launch and breakfast.
All classes have Berths.

I think Karakoram Express and Business Express are the best trains to travel between Karachi and Lahore.

Hello,
I am planing to visit pindi from karachi... and I have some questions..

1) Which train is best Business Express or Korakaram? (Because I am planing to go to lahore or faisalabad first then from there to pindi by bus)

2) Good and affordable hotels in pindi or islamabad? (Because I need to stay there for around 1 week)

3) How can I go to Neelum Valley - Azad Kashmir from Pindi? (just want to spend few days there.. is it easy and safe to go there?)

Thanks and regards
Fahad
