Islamabad: Pakistan Railways has achieved its highest-ever annual revenue, collecting Rs. 115.16 billion during FY2025-26 through stronger passenger services, freight operations, and commercial activities. The record income shows improvement in public transport demand and commercial performance, but the organization still remains under financial pressure due to heavy expenses, outdated infrastructure, and rising competition from road transport. The government says modernization, digital services, infrastructure upgrades, and expanded freight operations are key to making the railway system more efficient and sustainable. A stronger rail network can reduce logistics costs, support trade routes, improve industrial connectivity, and increase real estate value near major railway corridors. Can this record revenue lead to real railway reform?
