Agree Agree
In my opinion railways should make future train sets with this coach composition 6 general class coaches including luggage loading capacity , 6 sleeper coaches , 8 ac class coaches ( which can include third ac or second ac or first ac or can be a mixture of these coaches ) and ( either 1 ac coach or 2 ac coaches can be removed to add pantry car coach and extra luggage coach ) so 6+6+8 total 20 and 2 electric locos ( 1 at front side of whole trainset and 1 at back side of the whole trainset ) so 20 +2 total 22 coaches , so that instead of giving lhb rakes to some trains which runs on a longer path railways should directly convert those mail or express or superfast express trains into these trains sets and cost of making lhb coaches will also be reduced or...

saved due to directly conversion of mail or express train into train sets and rake reversal time of many trains will be reduced cost of doing rake reversal of a train will also be reduced ( due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) and speed of all trains can be increased (due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) . Please give your opinion on this but please don't give any argument related to politics so that i can save my post from getting archived.

Or either railways can apply this coach composition in in some upcoming amrit bharat express trains so that we can get see that whether this coach composition for train sets will become a successful idea or will become waste idea.

Passengers at Sihor Railway Station are facing difficulties due to the lack of a foot overbridge. This lack of accessibility causes inconvenience for all travelers, especially the elderly, women, and children. The station serves as a hub for trains connecting Sihor to various cities, including Palitana, Dwarka (Okha), Mumbai, Surendranagar, Rajkot,...

and other locations. Despite the station's importance, the absence of an overbridge forces travelers to navigate challenging crossings between platforms, especially the significant height difference between platforms 1 and 2. The issue has been brought to the attention of the railway authorities numerous times, but no action has been taken, leading to frustration among passengers and calls for the construction of a foot overbridge to improve accessibility and safety. This call is especially emphasized by Bhavesh Vora, Minister of the Sihor Chamber of Commerce and Industry.

Sihor Railway Station pe foot overbridge nahin hone ki wajah se passengers bahut pareshan ho rahe hain. Isse aane jane wale sabhi musafir, especially buddhe, ladies aur bachche pareshan ho rahe hain. Ye station Palitana, Dwarka (Okha), Mumbai, Surendranagar, Rajkot, aur aise hi aur bhi bahut saare cities se connect karta...

hai. Lekin itna bada station hone ke bawajood, overbridge nahin hone ki wajah se passengers ko platform 1 se platform 2 tak jaane mein bahut dikkat ho rahi hai, especially unki height mein bahut difference hai. Is issue ke bare mein railway authorities ko bahut baar bataya gaya hai, par koi action nahin liya gaya hai. Isse passengers bahut frustrated hain aur unka demand hai ki foot overbridge banaya jaye, jisse unki accessibility aur safety improve ho sake. Ye demand Sihor Chamber of Commerce and Industry ke Minister Bhavesh Vora ne bhi kiya hai.
