Must passenger extra trains be represented on a clearance card Form-A?

Passenger extra trains do not need to be represented on a clearance card Form-A. This indicates that while the operation of these extra trains must still adhere to safety regulations and protocols, they do not require the same documentation as regular service trains when it comes to clearance cards.

Clearance cards are primarily used for established service schedules and fixed train runs on the timetable. Extra trains, operating outside the normal scheduled service, may have different operational requirements that suffice without representation on Form-A. This flexibility allows for adjustments in scheduling and operations to meet passenger demands without the need for extensive documentation that pertains to trains operating in a regular capacity.

Understanding this distinction is crucial for maintaining efficiency and safety in train operations while ensuring that the necessary protocols are followed for scheduled trains.
