The Railways have recently announced that they will run ‘Oxygen Express’ over the next few days to transport liquid medical oxygen and oxygen cylinders across the country. Empty tankers will begin their journey from Kalamboli and Boisar railway stations in and near Mumbai to load liquid medical oxygen at Vizag, Jamshedpur, Rourkela and Bokaro. On the receipt of the request from the two states, the Railways immediately explored the technical feasibility of transportation of liquid medical oxygen. It has to be transported through roll-on-roll-off service with road tankers placed on flat wagons. A Green Corridor is being created for fast movement of Oxygen Express trains. Instructions have been issued to zonal railways to ensure readiness to receive the trailers and load them back. Ramps have to be built at Vizag, Angul and Bhilai and the existing ramp at Kalamboli is to be strengthened.
