First CNG Train Launch on Rewari-Rohtak Section of Northern Zone Tuesday Jan 13,2015

In what could be considered as a milestone in adoption of green fuel in Indian Railways, the first CNG train will be launched on Tuesday on Rewari-Rohtak section of Northern zone.

Based on the dual fuel system - diesel and CNG - the train will be flagged off by Railway Minister Suresh Prabhu from Rewari.
Railways have modified the 1,400 HP engine to run on dual fuel - diesel and CNG - through fumigation technology.

Introduction of CNG trains will reduce greenhouse gas emission by the Railways and also the consumption of diesel.
