Indian Railways sets new record! 3 crore passenger travel in trains in one day on November and 4

Indian Railways has achieved an unprecedented milestone by transporting over 3 crore passengers in a single day on November 4, 2024, marking a historic achievement in the country’s transportation history, according to a statement issued by the Ministry of Railways on Wednesday. 

On November 4, Indian Railways carried 120.72 lakh non-suburban passengers, including 19.43 lakh reserved passengers and 101.29 lakh unreserved passengers, along with a record 180 lakh suburban passengers, making it the highest single-day passenger count in 2024.

The total passenger traffic on this day alone reached over 3 crore, setting a new benchmark for the country’s rail system.

The statement also highlighted that this record-breaking feat reflects the immense scale and operational efficiency of Indian Railways during one of the busiest periods of the year, as millions of people traveled across the country for the ongoing Durga Puja, Diwali, and Chhath Puja celebrations.
