(COMMERCIAL CIRCULAR NO. 53 OF 2608) Sub: Abbreviation for different type of coaches. eet Please refer to this office letter of even No. dated 20.02.2007(Commercial Circular No. 13 of 2007) on the subject quoted above wherein abbreviations to be used for different type of coaches were advised. Consequent upon the introduction of modified high capacity coaches in Sleeper classes, AC Chair Car and 3AC, CRIS has come forward with the following suggestions:- (i) These coaches should be treated as different class which should be next to normal coaches in hierarchy for all purposes including coach replacement, upgradation, concession as the fares for high capacity coaches are lower than normal coaches of that class. fii} The following codes/abbreviations should be used for modified and high capacity coaches:- Abbreviation Type of Coach | Code(s) being ; il Coach .

The following course of action is therefore to be followed:- (i) These high capacity coaches should not be introduced in piece meal i.e. in one train in one class the coaches should be either conventional or modified high capacity coaches and not a combination thereof. “Strict compliance of these instructions should be ensured without fail.” Contd....2 My Documents/Tatkal/Letter 2008 = 8 (it) (iii) Codes of the modified coaches will be the same as that of normal coaches i.e. 51, $2, $3 in case of Sleeper Class and C1, C2, C3 in case of AC Chair Car and 81, B2, B3 in case of AC3 tier. However, for the purpose of defining these coaches in system, separate codes as suggested by CRIS in para 1 above should be used for charging different fares for these class. In case a modified coach attached in a train is damaged, the same should be replaced with the coach of same type/class or with the coach of lower class which are available in the rake ie. if the rake consists of high capacity coach of lower class, the damaged coach should be replaced with ie capacity coach of lower class and if rake consists of conventional ag , A uhay ' ED(Coaching) Railway Board Railway Board Copy to: 1.
