Radio On Rail

A 30-year-old Nepali man, who was found injured near a rail station in West Bengal a week ago, was reunited with his family on Tuesday, thanks to the efforts of a radio club.

Passengers can soon tune in to popular FM radio stations while travelling on trains, with the Indian Railway firming up plans to roll out a Rail Radio service for 'onboard infotainment' which would also come in handy in emergency situations and disasters.

Access to amusement facilities, travel by radio taxis and auto rickshaws will also be exempt.
