Current Availability status in the 1st commercial run. Around 5 % occupancy, I guess.

The similar occupancy with NGP-SC-NGP VB which is 20 car. Only IR knows the logic behind allotment.

How do you say not required, it is fast passenger between Kesinga and Durg, does it require? I am very doubtful about this VB to see 100% occupancy.

There is an incident reported on Durg-VSKP VB trail run, a group of 5 people vandalized with rocks at Bagbhara as a result glasses of 3 coaches are damaged. Police has arrested the 5 people and filed cases. Before inauguration, crazy stock attacked, very pathetic and sick minds!!

Hi everyone, I have joined this forum on this day Aug 24th and been 13 years of Rail blogging from the year 2011. In this journey of 13 years I posted 6508 posts and got 4319 rating. I thank each and everyone for the support. In this 13 years I have learned a lot from fellow members about IR apart from my knowledge.

Coming to my travel experience which started in year Sep 2002 when I started to travel to Hyderabad for career its 22 years and I have
...

used Rail, Bus and Car for my travel and seen lot of development in all these sectors over these years. Off late I have been losing intrest in Indian Railways. From the past 2 years IR is in a state of total turmoil and taking wrong decisions, issuing GOs then going backstep on wrong decisions, hyper publicity of Amrit Bharat stations and Vande Bharat leaving aside safety, shortage of crew, slow pace of development of projects and its implementation on ground but touting too much in publicity.

I will write and address my thoughts on different subjects of IR and some general topic.

Thank you everyone.

You have rightly pointed out the QoS (Quality of Service), how it is deteriorated in IR now. A normal journey can only be limited to AC class people. SL/GS became address for hell journey. Track maintenance became private affair now. Loco are churning out left and right but pilots are working under extreme pressure. Needless to say of LHB coaches inferior quality every day in every section 1 or 2 spring breaks are being reported. Punctuality became affair of VB trains, including Durontos suffering to maintain punctuality though they hype of 130 KMPH. When do they cancel or divert god knows.

Re# 6166831-7              
It looks like a joke to me denoting WAT division as sub-division. In IR so far, we didn't see the concept of sub-division. If they really respect, they can retain WAT division with lesser route kms and merging some route kms from BZA (e.g., NDD-DVD) as BZA division is going to have more route kms from new lines such as COA-NS, NS-MTM etc..

This is best super fast between VSKP-SC, most of the times it reaches on time or before time to SC. If ECoR discontinue RSA with Hirakud and make it 4 days ( Nagawali covers next 3 days)., it would be very good. And always there is demand, they make augmentation permanent and increase to 22 coaches.

    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...
