Indian Railways working on technology to avoid train cancellations due to fog 

All the trains will use Automatic Train Operation (ATO) technology and even in case of heavy fog or smog, they will be able to operate. Indian Railways (IR) is also set to implement a new anti-collision system called Kavach across key routes to improve safety. 

Kavach is an Automatic Train Protection (ATP) system that can stop a train in case of manual lapses or other malfunctions. The technology will also help in increasing operational safety during foggy weather. IR has issued 11 tenders to install the system across 3,000km of the network and in 760 locomotives.
