Hazrat Nizamuddin Railway Station: Product culture

The products found at a railway station hold a great significance in completing that area as a whole. Without these, the railway station won’t function the same and also, every traveler can make use of them efficiently.

DUSTBINS

Dustbins are containers used for holding waste till they are disposed off. An effective way to keep the tracks and platforms clean, because railway stations welcome thousands of people everyday. Their cleanliness and hygiene is of utmost importance.

LCD SCREENS/MONITORS

The LCD screens on the platforms are connected to the main monitors. They help the passengers keep a track of their train’s timings. Also, announcements are made whenever a train is about to arrive at the platform.

TICKETS

A train ticket is a travel document valid for a single trip/journey between any 2 cities/states. Thousands of people travel by trains everyday and these tickets help the railways to keep a record of their daily transactions.

Also, those coming to see off their loved ones, need to purchase a platform ticket which adds up to the railway’s treasury.

BENCHES

Every railway platform’s basic necessity is to have benches and seats, so as to provide comfort to the passengers while they wait for their trains to arrive. The number of people waiting at the platform at any given point of time is much more than the seating capacity provided by the benches, and as a result many people resort to sitting on the floor to take rest.

LUGGAGE CARRIER

Wipe out the image of those fancy metal trolleys you see at the airports because the ones you will find at the railway stations are made up of wooden planks with wheels. And these trolleys carry parcels which are to be shipped from one city to another.
