Everyday 800 people travel in this train.
Being very old, this train is seen as a heritage. Even today 800 people travel daily in this train. This train has proved to be very helpful for this dam. When the dam was built, there was no means of transport from Bhakra to Nangal. It was then considered to construct a railway track for the transport of labor and machines. Even during the construction of the dam, the work of transporting laborers and machines through train was done through train only. Although some time ago there was a demand to stop it, but then it was said that it should be seen as heritage and tradition, not considering it as a source of income.
