Dibrugarh Coaching Depot Undergoes Thorough Inspection For Enhanced Railway Safety
In Dibrugarh, the Divisional Railway Manager of Tinsukia Division conducted a comprehensive inspection of the Dibrugarh Coaching Depot on July 15, emphasizing a renewed focus on maintaining stringent safety and reliability standards for train operations. The primary objectives of this examination were to meticulously review the depot’s current working procedures and to rigorously assess the efficacy of its rake maintenance protocols. Accompanied by senior officials and technical staff, the railway official closely scrutinized key operational areas, including coach cleaning, mechanical inspections, and turnaround procedures, highlighting a commitment to operational excellence for enhanced passenger safety and improved overall service reliability.
During the inspection, the team engaged directly with the on-ground maintenance personnel to gain valuable insights into the daily challenges they encounter and to identify potential enhancements for streamlining operations and improving efficiency. The comprehensive review also included thorough checks on critical safety equipment, a detailed examination of record-keeping systems, and strict adherence to standard operating procedures. Recommendations were subsequently formulated to further optimize efficiency and improve the working conditions for the dedicated depot staff, reflecting a proactive approach to management and infrastructure upkeep.
This initiative is an integral part of Indian Railways’ broader national mission to modernize its extensive infrastructure and ensure that maintenance facilities across the country consistently meet the highest benchmarks of performance and safety. This systematic approach supports the railway network’s ongoing evolution, which recently saw a new Divisional Railway Manager assume leadership in Tinsukia Division in April. The previous official had notably overseen significant advancements, including extensive railway electrification and successful trial runs on key sections like Dibrugarh-Mariani, Namrup-Duliajan, and New Tinsukia-Dibrugarh, thereby facilitating the introduction of electric train services in the region.
This meticulous inspection underscores the unwavering commitment to operational excellence and passenger safety within the railway network. Such proactive measures are integral to modernizing India’s transport infrastructure, ensuring reliable service, and bolstering regional connectivity. Continuous improvements in maintenance protocols are vital for supporting sustainable development and fostering greater confidence in rail travel.
