SCR continues in key role as South Coastal Railway takes off as 18th zone
The South Central Railway (SCR) is undergoing a transition period following the creation of the new South Coastal Railway (SCoR) zone. While train operations have been demarcated, administrative and budgetary functions will be integrated gradually over the coming months.
Why it matters
Efficient railway administration is critical for infrastructure and logistics in India, impacting both passenger travel and freight movement.
The South Central Railway (SCR) has been reorganised from six divisions to three following the creation of the 18th railway zone, South Coastal Railway (SCoR). However, the SCR will continue to play a significant role for a few more months until the division of assets and functions is fully completed.
