This number is naturally a moving target, as IR is constantly opening new stations. Moreover, it is difficult to get a precise count of "stations" when considering junctions that have different gauges, stations with remote or differently named cabins or signalling sheds, derelict or abandoned stations, metropolitan areas with many stations and many branch lines that sometimes run parallel or intersect repeatedly, etc. As of 1999, IR's official web site claimed a total count of 6984 stations.

CONCOR is a public-sector concern, but it maintains its own fleet of wagons and other assets that are separate from IR's, although the traffic moves on IR's tracks. Recently the government has given
Read MoreThe rakes are assigned names in alphabetic sequence starting with a name that begins with an 'A' for the first formation out of a marshalling yard after 0100 hrs, along with a number.
