E Sreedharan says the RRTS is not an approved railway system under the Railway Act and is meant only for metropolitan regions, questioning the feasibility of Kerala’s proposed project. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/news/kerala/kerala-govts-rrts-move-aimed-at-derailing-high-speed-rail-project-claims-sreedharan-pahc5bih?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #Kerala #RRTS #ESreedharan

Kerala government greenlights the first phase of the Regional Rapid Transit System (RRTS) as SilverLine alternative. Construction of the first phase from Thiruvananthapuram to Thrissur is expected to begin in 2027. https://english.mathrubhumi.com/news/kerala/kerala-rrts-replaces-silverline-transit-plan-mf2c1c4p?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #Kerala #RRTS #SilverLine #TravancoreLine #HighSpeedRail

Delhi - Meerut RRTS network was extended to Meerut South station (outskirts of Meerut City) a couple of days ago on 18th of August. So, I gave it a try on the 20th.

It has a separate coach for premium passengers with platforms having separate sections labeled premium and standard. Every seat has charging points and all stations have drinking water facility and free-of-cost washrooms.

I bought my ticket using cash from a vending machine.
