He said trains navigating through quadrilateral courses, for example, the Delhi-Howrah, Delhi-Mumbai, Delhi-Chennai and Howrah-Mumbai halls have been unfavourably affected as these divisions confront extreme limit limitations due to the lines' powerlessness to deal with any more movement.

Some IT measures have additionally been started to guarantee promptness.
