However, this restriction is not applicable to ‘Ordinary Passenger trains & Luggage traffic’. Accordingly, the Parcel Management System (PMS) does not permit booking in a train from or to any station, if the stoppage of the train at that station — as per Passenger Time Table (PTT) — is less than five minutes. 2. Various representations have been received in Board office for relaxation in this provision, in order to attract more parcel traffic. Zonal Railways have been requesting for (a) grant of powers to Zonal Railways to relax the aforementioned provision, and (b) provision of incorporating the timings of Working Time Table (WTT), instead of PTT, in the Parcel Management System. 3, The matter has been examined in this office, and it has been decided with the approval of Competent Authority that: (a) Zonal Railways, in coordination with the originating Railway for specific train, shall update the arrival and departure timings of the train as per Working Time Table (WTT), if required. Necessary enabling modifications in PMS application, if required, shall be incorporated by CRIS.

However, permission for loading/unloading of parcels shall be subject to the following conditions: i. Such relaxation for parcel loading shall be permitted at only one station for each train within the jurisdiction of each Zonal Railway. ii. This will be authorized jointly by PCOM and PCCM after undertaking case by case analysis of parcel loading potential from each specific station for a particular train. ili. Punctuality of the train shall not be affected, on account of loading/ unloading at the intermediate station. 4. The above instructions shall be applicable only on ‘Railway-booking of parcels’. Permission for loading/ unloading in case of ‘contracts for leased parcel space’ shall continue to be governed by their respective Agreements.
