This is a worthful train between JSME-HWH for the speed it shows during the entire journey.I was travelling in this train once and it completed the HWH-DGR journey in flat 100 mins and arrived at DGR at 15:45 hrs....fulll 13 mins before time....thereby maintaining an average speed of 94.8 KPH.

Worried for Prepaid Taxi Lines at Howrah Jn ! You are in Luck because Howrah City Police has now started e-Booking for Kolkata's regular taxis and No Refusals. Along with 4-5 Prepaid Counters now one can book online a day before. Note - This is not IRCTC Cab Service. For that You need to have a PNR No. But this is separate initiative taken by Howrah City Police for more comfortable journey for Passengers or anyone else.For this you do not need any PNR No.
Process -
1) Go to - etaxi.howrahcitypolice.in
2)...
more...
Enter Required Details Like Mobile No. And Destination.
3) Check the Fare Provided and confirm booking.
4) You will receive a TBN ( Taxi Booking No.) On your phone.
5) Find On of the Pre Paid Transaction machines which are available nicely on both Old and New Complexes.
6) Enter TBN
7) Take the slip. Just Go to the regular Pre Paid Taxi stand and hand over that to the Policeman who allots taxis to Prepaid Holders.
8) Enjoy the Hassel free Ride in the City of Joy. At Prepaid Costs.

This is very good initiative by the Howrah city police....now people don't have to stand at long queues to get to the prepaid taxi booth and get the slip to board the taxi.

I think this is an experiment...eventually most of the VIP trains would get fitted with these cameras most probably.
