Adding to the facilities of the station, each RAPIDX train service will have a dedicated train attendant to help travellers with the onboard amenities and ensure their safe and secure travel. According to them, a train operator will operate the vehicle, and there will always be one train attendant on board to help commuters.

As per National Capital Region Transport Corporation (NCRTC), the attendant will be positioned in the first-class coach and will notify travellers of all pertinent travel-related information. By 2025, the NCRTC hopes to open the entire Delhi-Ghaziabad-Meerut corridor to the general public.
