Freights are bumping into standing passenger trains causing rampage into last three coaches.
How the slowing down of passenger trains would help in such accidents case scenario?

IR's logic: bailgaari ki speed se train chalao, jisse train takra bhi jaaye to jaan maal ka jyada nuksaan na ho kyuki collision avoidance full proof karne mein will take lot of time and budget

theoretically they should reduce the fare of both Gatimaan and VB. Gatimaan mein gati hi na ho to khali 'maan' sammaan ke naam par kisi se extra fare lena uchit nahi hai

In recent days I've seen unhealthy obsession of members with trains and stations.

For example the Vikramshila guy, he left the site over a stoppage rumor. The Malda guy, he's inconsolable after Farakka went to BLGT. The Ara, Patna and Sasaram guys, they think people are jealous of a city they probably won't even visit. The Kakinada and Khammam guys, they went on abusing other cities. Or the anti Vande Bharat guy, leaving no stone unturned to create controversy.
...
more...

At the end of the day, trains are just a transport medium. They'll get extended if railways sees the feasibility or even if strong politics is involved.

Trains aren't some status symbol, regular people don't even care if they're sitting in some random special or a named train as long as it takes them to their destinations.

You can get a thousand trains, or maybe get none e.g. Rajgir area, but will that change what the city has to offer? Or what is the potential of that city? Or what are the living standards of people in that city? No.

As I've commented earlier, trains aren't life. Being a fan is okay, but making them a matter of life or ego is equally bad.

Hope people understand this and indulge in constructive discussions. Many older members have already left this site, due to the undue politics and controversies. If that keeps happening all that will remain is a fish market with no knowledgeable source in sight.

Politics has destroyed IR itself and is in turn encouraging some politically motivated souls to destroy this useful forum also. While arguing some members tend to forget that this forum could be best used for sharing their experiences, knowledge and information above all with fellow members and common public instead of bending unrightfully forward to justify their demands or ideas. It's this uniqueness that placed this forum above others for many years but is slowly deteriorating due to lack of interest shown by senior members owing to many reasons. Hope there is sound recovery coming soon from stores for this.

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?

For large number of trains coming from pryj/cnb side driven by NCR (CNB)wap7. Its pure politics led by AAP that is stopping IR from removing dayabasti slums.

    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...
