Train Services to be Affected: South Western Railway has Announced Some Changes to Trains Due to Repair Work

South Western Railway (SWR) has announced changes to some train services because of essential maintenance work at the Hassan and Holenarsipur railway yards. The work is being carried out to maintain railway infrastructure and ensure the safe and smooth movement of trains. Due to the maintenance activities, some trains will be fully cancelled, while others will operate on shorter routes or face delays.

Trains Partially Cancelled

Some services will run only on a shortened route during the maintenance period.
