In a historic advance for regional travel, Mizoram is set to welcome its first passenger train between Bairabi and Sairang by September 2025. A crucial green signal has been received from safety regulators, and preparations are well underway to introduce rail service into this previously road bound terrain.
This development is poised to revolutionize connectivity across Mizoram’s hilly landscapes. More than enhancing mobility, the train link is expected to trigger economic and tourism gains—offering easier access to tribal homestays, hilltop retreats, and cultural tourism circuits.
As locals anticipate the formal rollout, infrastructure teams are conducting final track tests, safety drills, and station readiness assessments. This move represents not just a milestone in transportation but a significant stride in bringing remote North Eastern states into the national tourism and transit fold.
