Trains are getting longer and crowded by every month ..
Something has to be done for this route, Perhaps a alternative route with Broad Gauge ..
There used to be a 2' 6" Narrow Gauge route from Jayanagar (India) via Janakpur (Nepal) to Bijalpura (Nepal). This route is under Gauge Conversion. This route, however, is mostly in the plains. Therefore, conversion from Narrow Gauge to Broad Gauge is easy. The further you go into the mountains, the more challenging it becomes to lay Broad Gauge tracks.

perhaps this was deliberate, done by some miscreants? i suppose for a train like this, with price-slab like the one it has, as well as the route it plies on, the 'class' of people it would attract as passengers wouldnt or shouldnt definitely be the vandalising ones. Mahanama express i could still understand, but this one here is a bit tough to digest. may be some fellows with plans for mischief in their minds got in & achieved their purpose. though what it got them ultimately i cant fathom. the people's/passengers' reactions prior the journey were optimistic and exuded the sense of excitement they carried. unfortunately & sadly the affair also culminated in this!Passengers vandalise Tejas Express on its first Mumbai-Goa trip
The headphones are now with the conductor. If you want one, you gotta sign and take it!in a lighter vein, when simple trains have their toilet-mugs chained, why didnt the railways think of securing the headphones too here? probably they were also thinking on my line.
So every compartment got a separate TC?The headphones are now with the conductor. If you want one, you gotta sign and take it!
But what a bloody shame! These miscreants have been caught on CCTV and will be brought to book soon, according to the Railway minister.
Not TC but conductor. The cost of the headphones was Rs 200 each. Signing before taking one was too cumbersome and impractical. So now they have introduced cheap 'use and throw' headphones costing Rs 30/- each! Lol! :biggrin2:So every compartment got a separate TC?

These are LHB coaches.^^ Are these LHB coaches? Somehow, the exterior appears to be like old ICF coaches.
We had them separate, then we merged all train related stuff into one thread. This happened several years ago. Indian Railways, Metros, Trams, are all technically railways. This also includes monorail.@pmaitra Do you think it would be a good idea to have separate threads on Railways and Mass Rapid transit (Metro, BRTS, Trams etc.?)
5000crore to develop an app!?!?!? What is the requirement? A Super intelligent sentient AI that can solve the middle eastern crisis?a colleague was commenting today that he read some news about IRCTC requiring a budget of INR 5000cr to develop an app. i tried to search for it but couldnt find anything about it. does anybody what he was talking about?
