Is this and DEE-AII Jan Shatabdi the only case where 'Jan Shatabdi' running b/w end to end stations are actually faster than their Shatabdi counterparts?

Ah yes. It slightly edges the Shatabdi. The latter's stoppage at Raniganj costs it those precious few minutes.

Agree
It could be convert in superfast express service with speed-up n reduce unnecessary stoppages with Sleeper n AC coaches between Rampurhat and Gaya to connect these two holy places.....
Or
Alternatively another service between these places should be introduce.

I think due to RSA, nothing can be done for this train. Maybe, if demand is there, a different train[possibly, one doing the journey overnight] should be better.

Can someone please explain why there is an eletric trip shed of NCR at NDLS along with NR?

Also, wouldn't it be better to wall off tracks around Dayabasti and Wazirpur-Azadpur slums, than to keep a PSR and face constant threat of breach on tracks?

People play cards on those active tracks. Once I was traveling via passenger towards DLI and saw Gorakdham being shunted on the other tracks. Some guy was walking in front with HEADPHONES on and the loco was honking like crazy. He only moved off at the last moment.

These mps restrictions are the reason why DEC - JP VB is run and not from NDLS/DLI despite DEC not having a metro station nearby [nearest is ~2km away]. Running from the NDLS/DLI would easily add ~30 mins addition to it's TT and

IR, to keep the TT artificially fast chose DEC as the terminus.

I think the location Dayabasti and accompanying station of the same name is notorious for this. The Google Maps reviews are filled with people asking folks not to go there after dusk. I once boarded a passenger from there[during day, of course] and had a chance to see the station and it was the dirtiest thing I have seen till now. Atleast 4 cows/bulls at station entrance and then a giant garbage dump b/w PF #2 and #3.

People love to go to weird places. I once was going from old Delhi station towards Jama Masjid side[close to where the old shops are for eating :p]. That area, if anyone has been there, is exceptionally dense. Sometimes it feels that the population density will choke you down.

And what do I see in those narrow lanes? White folks touring. Delhi has many historic places, museums and conventional locations to tour. But near so called 'Chor Bazaar'? That is one of the worst experiences one can have. I myself heavily

disliked that area and only been there couple of times.

    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...
