Abuja-Kaduna: NRC adjusts train time schedule

The Nigerian Railway Corporation (NRC) has announced the adjustment of take-off time schedule for its last two trains from Idu (Abuja) to Rigasa (Kaduna) and vice versa.

Mr Pascal Nnorli, the Manager, Abuja-Kaduna Train Service (AKTS), told the News Agency of Nigeria(NAN) on Friday that the adjustments were to ensure early arrival of the train to its destinations.

According to Nnorli, the train will now depart 30 minutes earlier than its previous take-off time.

He said, “The AK3 from Idu(Abuja) which takes off at 3:30pm to arrive Rigasa (Kaduna) at 5:38pm, will now leave at 3:00 p.m., to arrive at 5:08pm.
