Discount on Early Booking:
After new update on the mobile application of Pakistan railways the fares for tickets of Green Line are different depending on the day for which you are booking the ticket.
The Green Line Train service was introduced as a premium train service at affordable price. It successfully attracted passengers by providing a more economical means of travel in Pakistan. Business men, professionals and families all prefer Green Line Train due to it’s shorter timing and better facilities.
Under Sheikh Rasheed as Minister for Railway more passenger railways were introduced including Jinnah Express and Rehman Baba Express.
Jinnah Express followed the successful model of Green Line by providing comfortable and premium passenger service while Rehman Baba offers affordable service for economy class.
For more details and information contact Pakistan Railways through their helpline 117 or visit the official website where you can check the timing, fare and book your tickets.
