NRC: Abuja-Kaduna train platform opens for ticket payment
The Nigerian Railway Corporation has announced that the online ticketing platform for the Abuja–Kaduna Train Service is now open for payment.
NRC spokesman Callistus Unyimadu disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday.
Mr Umyimadu said that passengers were therefore encouraged to book their tickets online ahead of the resumption on October 1 via https://nrc.tps.ng or visit any of the designated stations to purchase their tickets.
According to him, in preparation for the resumption of services, the journey time has been reduced following a review of the Temporary Speed Restriction to enhance operations.
The new schedule is as follows: Abuja-Kaduna-Idu: 8:45 a.m., Kubwa, 9:10 a.m., Rigasa (arrival), 11:47 a.m., Kaduna-Abuja: Rigasa, 2:30 p.m., Kubwa, 5:12 p.m., and Idu (arrival), 5:32 p.m.
He added that the management of NRC appreciated the patience and understanding of its esteemed passengers during the suspension period.
He assured the public that safety, comfort, and customer satisfaction remained top priorities.
