Train Forum
This train has been rescheduled again today on date 03/05/2024 by 1 hr 40 mins, while Ispat Express is running right time. Passengers must stop travelling by this train. I myself have stopped travelling by this train since the last few months. Tata - Gua passenger is better to travel from Tata upto Bara Jamda. Takes 1 third to 1 fifth fare as compared to this Jan Shatabdi Express and generally remains only 30 mins to 1 Hr late, while this Jan Shatabdi Express is almost always 2 to 4 hours late. This might be the most late travelling Jan Shatabdi Express in India now. This train has become a disgrace in the name of Jan Shatabdi Express now.

This train has no Rake Sharing Arrangement with any other train. It's rake is dedicated only for this train.
There is no such Intercity with same composition, but who knows they attach-detach coaches?
What more can I say Piyush, SER & SECR as respective zones are least concerned with the plight and state of the passengers!
There is only so much inconvenience that the general public can and will endure. Beyond that their will be serious repercussions.
The present regime has become absolutely arrogant and put a no good Yes-man incharge of the MOR. A regime change is needed so that a fresh perspective is laid out to the general public

More or less, SECR has minimized its activities. If after NGP, a train becomes 1 hr late, max to max it gets 2 hrs late at JSG outers. I have myself experienced this 2 times. After JSG till Rourkela it is worse than pathetic conditions.
My father already uses two another alternatives many a times but it takes more time.

Rolling Blocks hammered the final nail to the already congested sections. Crews are having very hard time differentiating between TSRs and PSRs, now that they are active every 10-15 kms.
I ain't against these blocks. Infact, they have been the best proven method till date to swiftly ensure track maintenance and upgradation. Inter departmental coordinations are all time high. What should have been included is the reduction or ignorance of any loading target for zones during the period. That way profitable zones won't be forced to balance their sheets and therefore could've ensured passenger train punctuality. SER aka 'Passenger Unfriendly Zone' wasn't a slacky or sloppy type ever in past. It always operated passenger trains with aggression.

Running late by 2 hours again today on 04/05/2024. The concerned division controller needs to be transferred immediately.
Is this the most late running Jan Shatabdi Express in India now?
It has become daily affair for this train to run late from Howrah to Barbil, while Ispat express runs more timely then this train. At one time this train (Train no. 12021/12022) had highest priority after Rajdhani Express, Duronto Express and Shatabdi Express. Now all that has gone down the drain. Since last 8 years, while travelling from Ranchi to Dangoaposi, I always used to go to Chaibasa from Ranchi by bus and then I caught this Janshatabdi Express from Chaibasa to Dangoaposi. Twice, I also caught Ranchi - Howrah Vande Bharat Express and went to Tata from Ranchi. From Tata to Dangoaposi, I used to catch this Janshatabdi Express. Since the last few months, due to the irregularity of this Janshatabdi Express, I am going to Chaibasa from Ranchi by early morning 1st bus and then catching Tata - Gua Passenger train from Chaibasa. Fare of Tata - Gua...

While going from Howrah to Barbil, this train is usually getting 2 hours late, while Ispat express (Howrah - Titlagarh/Kantabanji Express) whose scheduled arrival at Tatanagar is 28 minutes after this train, reaches Tatanagar before this train. How does this happen? Does this train stand in loop line and allows Ispat express to overtake it?
