In his maiden "Budget Speech" as an RM Mr Suresh Prabhu made the following announcement today:
The most Popular Trains which have huge Demand all over the Year and Confirm Reservation of which is very difficult to get in many times would be made "26 Coacher" in future. Mr Prabhu also said extra coaches will be taken from less popular trains and those will be added in the Most Popular Trains to make them 26 coacher.
After making Survey and selecting such type of Most Popular Trains those
...
more...
can be augmented with 26 Coaches by taking coaches from less popular trains.
Now My question is:
1 Can it be feasible in realistic view by taking coaches from other trains to only Most Popular Trains?
2 The Present fleet of Locomotive can haul upto 24 Coaches. Only WAP 4 and WAP 7 can haul 24 to 26 Coaches.So if 26 Coaches are given in all Most Popular Trains of Indian Railway then will WAP 7/WAP 4 be provided for all those trains???
3 What will be the Fate of "Less Popular Trains" running on Indian Railtracks?????

Well to indeed manage the rolling stock... IR will need micro management of its resources. There will be several operational and administrative hurdles in managing it. e.g. Such adjustment may eventually end up withdrawing some train services...
lets see how things unfold...

    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...
