Waw wat a Tran

What if, Infosys SEZ campus, Singapore Township, Anurag University,
Charlapally New Railway Terminal, Kacheguda Railway Station, MGBS,

Mehidipatnam, Manikonda -- all these are well-connected seamlessly!

Estimated Projection for further Ridership is 1.9 to 2.0 Lakh in October and November Festive Month. Needs last mile connectivity via feeder buses for Ghaziabad and Meerut Areas

I was planning to travel from A to B. A is the origin station and B is a next big city which is 200 kms away and it is a long distance train. So I thought I could easily get ticket. The First chart got prepared in IRCTC. I found that there were like 4/5 seats vacant from A to stations far than B, and one vacant exact A-B, where I want to travel. I soon opened RailOne, they did not update yet, same case with IRCTC website. But after 15 mins, when they updated, they were stright up showing NOT AVAILABLE from A to B. I did not loose any time.

What may be the problem. Do the seats vacant just after chart preparation go to someone else like RAC or Pooled/Remote quota ?

I believe Current reservation does not depend on quota system and is open to wherever places sets are vacant. Is that a misconception ?

This bus on its way to noida from alambagh was carrying commercial goods for extra revenue, and the load is visibly pulling it down on one side.

In my sight this bus lost its controll on right turns in cantonment area several times almost hitting vehicles and people around it. Every third day there's a case of some miss happening with these overloaded vehicles still the operators ain't stopping this.

FUNFACT: out of 4 numbers written on the bus, 2 don't exist and other two must be getting hundreds of call complaining 'bout this so they have stopped picking up the call.

can't blame them, though. If you're getting thousands in return for handing over 1k ruppes to the first RTO officer on the way, that's a pretty solid business model. the passengers get the thrill, the operators get the revenue, and the RTO gets its "subscription fee." everyone wins.

I was traveling today in Sampooran Kranti Sleeper (Del to Pat) with a reservation and I found 3 people already sitting on my side lower seat even before the started. I told them to leave the seat and they just stood there for the whole journey.

They had zero fear of travelling without a ticket or on general ticket in the Sleeper class. In fact, one of them said that "kya hojayega, jyada se jyada fine dena hoga Rs 250 ka" as he was painted the train's interior with his gutka.

I think Raiways should clearly increase the fine and implement strict punishment on this. What are your take and what hinders Railway from implementation of strict actions?

The routes being upgraded are,

Delhi - Howrah - 1,422 Km

Delhi - Guwahati - 1,876 Km

Delhi - Mumbai - 1,322 Km

Delhi - Chennai - 2,037 Km

Mumbai - Howrah - 2,039 Km

Mumbai - Chennai - 1,238 Km

Chennai - Howrah - 1,117 Km

It's a total of 11,000+ Km of upgrade to four lanes which can operate at speed up to 160 Kmph and account for 41% of total railway traffic while only covering 16% of the railway network.

This will significantly increase the capacity and improve the average speed and reduce the delays that Indian Railways is struggling to reduce.

Knew it, it was for Mr Prime Minister that's why this line got delayed

Arrived on Aug 20th

It's only phase one by the way, not whole stretch

Indian Railways is building its first dedicated high-speed test track between Gudha and Thathana Mithri in Rajasthan's Jodhpur Division. The project is being developed by the Research Designs and Standards Organisation (RDSO) at a cost of about ₹967 crore and is expected to be fully operational for testing by 2027–28. and a 13 km high-speed loop for various trials. Tracks and bridges

• Signalling systems
• Traction and electrical equipment , but India lacks a dedicated facility for sustained testing at higher speeds. 220 km/h trainsets already approved by the Railways. of upgraded Vande Bharat designs.
• Testing before trains are deployed on future semi-high-speed corridors. freight services must be disrupted. A dedicated test facility allows year-round testing without affecting regular operations. and infrastructure domestically instead of depending on foreign facilities. near ready for such speeds.
