After the successful installation of controlled discharge toilet system (CDTS) in 400 coaches, the Indian Railways is planning to introduce green toilets in Shatabdi and other long distance trains on a trial basis. The Railways is exploring two options – a vacuum toilet system and a bio-toilet. These green toilets would not only help keep tracks and railway platforms clean but will also ensure longevity of tracks, which get eroded due to waste accumulation.
