Addressing the workshop, Divisional Railway Manager (DRM), Allahabad SK Chowdhary dwelt on the failures of assets like engines, coaches and wagons which affected the movement of large number of trains. He emphasised the need for minimising the failure of such assets which led to the detention of many trains. Besides, the officers discussed the measures to clear block section in minimum time during assets failure. Chowdhary said that during block section failure, the driver should be approached soon.
