Automatic door lock in Rajdhani Trains

In addition to the safety features on board and to curb criminal activities, Railways have planned to introduce automatic door locking systems in trains. Starting with Rajdhani and Shatabdi trains, the concept of automatic doors have been introduced to avoid passengers falling off from running trains. Incidentally, falling off the running trains have been second major cause of deaths in the past.

Station Platform

Equipped with automatic door locking system, 2 Rajdhani trains and 2 Shatabdi trains will be on the run starting April this year as a pilot project. Later this system would be replicated on all the suburban trains in India. As per the officials, it would cost around Rs. 20 Lakh per coach to make this automatic system operational.

Under the new system to be controlled by the train guard from his cabin, all doors would be opened automatically when a train arrives at the station and would close before it departs from the station. At present train doors are opened and closed manually.

Crowd on Gate

So the doors would be opened only at the platform side and the other side would remain close, thereby avoiding any unauthorized entry into the trains.
