Veldurthi Goods Shed Operates First Container Rake Following ECRT Reclassification
Boosting multi-modal connectivity near emerging industrial hubs, South Central Railway (SCR) has successfully loaded its first-ever container rake at the Veldurthi Goods Shed. The facility achieved this operational milestone shortly after being reclassified as an Exclusive Container Rail Terminal (ECRT) by Indian Railways, making it the very first goods shed in the Hyderabad Division to earn the strategic designation.
