The Nigerian Railway Corporation, NRC, has said it will operate three train trips on the Lagos–Ibadan Train Service, LITS, corridor on Monday, March 23.
The announcement is contained in a statement issued on Friday in Lagos by NRC Chief Public Relations Officer, Mr Callistus Unyimadu.
He said the additional trip responded to high passenger turnout during the Eid-el-Fitr travel period.
“The extra trip is aimed at easing passenger movement and providing more travel options for commuters returning after the Eid-el-Fitr celebrations.
“Under the schedule, departures from Lagos (Mobolaji Johnson Station, Ebute Metta) will be at 7.45 a.m., 1.40 p.m., and 4.00 p.m.
“From Ibadan (Obafemi Awolowo Station, Moniya), trains will depart at 8.00 a.m., 10.50 a.m., and 4.30 p.m,” he said.
Unyimadu assured passengers of NRC’s continued commitment to safe, reliable, and efficient rail services.
He advised travellers to arrive early, comply with ticketing and security procedures, and plan their journeys.
“The corporation appreciates the continued patronage of its services and wishes all passengers a safe and pleasant journey,” he added.
