Thanks . Was not aware of this policy that return train needs to leave within 3 hours if no Maintenance . Then how come 12246 or 22888 or 22864 gets priority of having Overnight Halt at Bangalore and this train 12863 which is one of the Top Revenue Generators for SER doesn't get that Benefit .
Also for 12840 I completely agree that its a useless time to leave MAS at 1900 hours instead of the previous 2345 hours . Lot of us used to avail that train through Mysore Shatabdi Chain when getting Tickets on 12864 gets tough during peak season . That option is also closed now .
Some...
more... of these Timing Changes really don't make any sense and is causing unnecessary discomfort to frequent travelers .
please wait...Translate to EnglishThanks. I didn't know that if a train doesn't need maintenance, it has to leave within 3 hours. So how do trains like 12246, 22888, or 22864 get to stay overnight in Bangalore? And this train 12863, which makes a lot of money for SER, doesn't get that benefit.
Also, I completely agree that it's stupid to leave MAS at 1900 hours instead of the previous 2345 hours for train 12840. A lot of us used to take that train through the Mysore Shatabdi chain when getting tickets on 12864 was difficult during peak season. That option is also gone now.
Some of these timing changes really don't make any sense and are causing unnecessary problems for frequent travelers.
