In addition, South East Central Railway (SECR) will implement advanced fire detection systems in AC coaches and hand brake indicators in guard vans. Previously, these systems were only available in Humsafar Express trains, but they will now be extended to other trains to enhance passenger safety and train operational reliability.
Advanced Fire Detection System:
-
Triggers an alarm at the first sign of smoke or fire.
-
Sensors installed throughout the AC coach.
-
Allows staff to detect hazards immediately and take timely action.
Hand Brake Indicator in Guard Vans:
-
A digital indicator in the guard’s cabin shows the brake status.
-
Reduces the chance of errors in brake operation and ensures safer train operations.
-
Eliminates confusion between guards and loco staff, reduces workload, and enhances overall safety.
This technology was showcased by the Durg Coaching Depot during Rajyotsav 2025, receiving praise from passengers and experts alike.
