Great
This run is its first one with rake standardization and see the treatment accorded right from home zone of SWR itself, then SCR and finally the great SECR.
Prime example of organized and legalized loot by Railways. On one hand force passengers to upgrade to AC class and on the second hand prioritise freights and add delays to passengers trains.
This is the fifth consecutive time I have seen the slack time between VKB to SC being pretty useless has to cover 72kms in just 1 hour 53 minutes on a FEDL route
...
more...
and these buggers can't even use that to recover delays.
Absolutely pathetic when the train was introduced migrants from Chattisgarh and Jharkhand were pretty happy for a direct connection but travel in this train has become a nightmare for them.
If zones don't want to run it why not simply cancel the train and let people travel like how they used to do before like using connections from Mumbai I know even those trains are delayed in SECR but this train is delayed in SCR itself which doubles the delay added in SECR.

Haa, then there is no need for these discussions as they have already decided. We can only hope the fare remains reasonable so that everyone can afford it. Atleast they need to run trains like antyodaya for the people (such as migrants) who are not able to afford the AC class.

Confusing for me as well, after introducing all these premium trains and rake standardization, they are still adding this disclaimer when we are booking a ticket in IRCTC.

I will still say this train is lucky to add just 2 hrs delay in SECR. Popular trains like Geetanjali and Howrah Duronto are running late by minimum 3 to 4 hrs on an average on every run since last 1 year.

However you do have a point that atleast till BPQ, the delay should have been nullified given the adequate availability of slack.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
