The Delhi Ring railway, a part of Delhi's suburban railway services, is a thirty-five-kilometre (22 mi) circular railway network in Delhi that runs parallel to the Ring Road. It was laid in 1975 primarily to service freight trains that could bypass the crowded and passenger-heavy Old Delhi and New Delhi railway stations. The network was upgraded for the 1982 Asian Games with the introduction of 24 additional services. Its circular route takes trains 90–120 minutes to complete, both clockwise and anti-clockwise via the Hazrat Nizamuddin Railway Station between 8 am and 7 pm. With a return ticket for the entire journey costing ₹12 (15¢ US), compared to with Delhi Metro, which is around ₹60 (75¢ US), it is preferred by poor and middle-class families. It runs seven clockwise and six anti-clock
