📘 1. Pink Book Discontinued

Railway Board’s former Pink Book, which detailed capital works (> ₹2.5 Cr) zone-wise, has now been replaced by the CBS. The new format consolidates infrastructure, rolling stock, and major loco works into zone- and production-unit–specific PDFs.

🏭 2. CLW’s Annual CBS Report

Project listings and budget line-items for Chittaranjan Locomotive Works now appear under:

  • “Consolidated Budget Statement 2025‑26 – Chittaranjan Locomotive Works”

You can access the PDF directly from the Indian Railways Railway Board website. This document replaces the Pink Book for CLW projects.
