The Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) has announced that the online ticketing platform for the Abuja-Kaduna Train Service (AKTS) is now open for payment.
The Chief Public Relations Officer of the NRC, Mr. Callistus Unyimadu, disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday in Lagos.
He explained that passengers are encouraged to book their tickets online ahead of resumption on Oct. 1 via https://nrc.tps.ng or visit any of the designated stations to purchase their tickets.
According to him, as part of preparations for the resumption of services, the journey time has been reduced following a review of the Temporary Speed Restriction (TSR) to improve operations.
‘The new schedule is as follows: Abuja-Kaduna – Idu: 8:45 a.m., Kubwa, 9:10 a.m., Rigasa (Arrive), 11:47 a.m. Kaduna-Abuja: Rigasa, 2:30 p.m., Kubwa, 5:12 p.m., and Idu (Arrive), 5:32 p.m.’
