India’s Konkan may keep running Nepal trains

Contract with Indian firm expires in December-end, but Nepal has yet to hire and train its own staff.

After the Nepal Railway Company failed to train its staffers to operate Nepal’s sole railway service, India’s Konkan Railways Corporation Limited (KRCL) that has been managing the Jayanagar-Kurtha cross-border railway, is likely to get another one-year term extension to continue its service.
