Hope they maintain the schedules properly. Northeast routes often face delays due to weather conditions. The infrastructure should be robust enough to handle these new services consistently.

The tri-weekly service to Kolkata is a smart move. It will help Mizoram's agricultural products reach bigger markets. Hope the freight services are also enhanced along with passenger trains.
