<span class="mw-page-title-main">Delhi Ring Railway</span> Railway line in Delhi

The Delhi Ring railway, was a part of Delhi's suburban railway services, is a 35 kilometres (22 mi) circular railway network in Delhi that ran parallel to the Ring Road. It was laid in 1975 primarily to service freight trains that could bypass the crowded and passenger-heavy Old Delhi and New Delhi railway stations. The network was upgraded for the 1982 Asian Games with the introduction of 24 additional services. Its circular route takes trains 90–120 minutes to complete, both clockwise and anti-clockwise via the Hazrat Nizamuddin Railway Station between 8 am and 7 pm. With a return ticket for the entire journey costing 12 (14¢ US), compared to with Delhi Metro, which is around 60 (70¢ US), it is preferred by poor and middle-class families. It runs seven clockwise and six anti-clockwise trains at a peak frequency of 60 to 90 minutes during the morning and evening rush hours. Prior to the 2010 Commonwealth Games, seven stations near the sports venues, namely Chanakyapuri, Sarojini Nagar, Inderpuri Halt, Lajpat Nagar, Sewa Nagar, Lodhi Colony and Safdarjung, received a facelift at the cost of 3 crore (US$351,000).

Sarai Kale Khan RRTS station is an under-construction station located in the South East Delhi district of Delhi, India. It is designed for high-speed trains operating on the RapidX network, capable of reaching speeds up to 180 km/h. The station will serve as both a terminus and an originating station for three priority RRTS corridors under the first phase: Delhi-Panipat, Delhi-Alwar, and Delhi-Meerut.
