* Why is IR always in a hurry to show that they are very efficient by hurriedly replacing the toilets with the models of bio-toilets which are not suitable for our trains and are not working well. Some experts were beforehand raising the doubt about the performance & suitability of such toilets in IR.
* Fitment of about 40000 coaches in just a few years have costed around 400 crore Rs to IR. Now realising that vacuum toilets are required, means the efforts, funds, time etc has been wasted!!
* Same is the...
more... case with electrification, where entire BG route planned for very quick electrification in just 3-4 years, by electrifying 6000-6500 route kms of track per year. The most disturbing fact is - there are no concrete plans about the replacement of all BG D-locos by E-locos and what to be done with 5000 odd D locos owned by IR!!!! Runnin D-locos on electrified tracks will not give the intended benefits.
