Re# 1592658-30              
I think this schedule is very much doable with little delay at the end.The timing is perfect when the train reaches the congested routes of Kerala.Rest of the routes of this train are blessed with hi-speed tracks(110MPS).Only challenge will be to maintain the schedule between MAS and KPD.Covering the 129Km stretch in 85mins is a little hectic task since the EMU and all will obstruct this trains path and also the train will gain speed only after Vyasarpadi Jiva.But after that since its nxt stop is at ED it needs to slow down only at JTJ and SA which wont affect timings since already this stretch of 265kms is given 3hrs 23mins at an avg of 78km/hr.This avg can be easily maintained since the train has MPS at 110Km/hr except for slowing down at JTJ and SA.And this is easily possible since train 12646(Millenium Exp) covers this stretch in 3:35hrs and...
more...
that too with stops at JTJ and SA.Coming onto the stretch frm ED-PGT an added benefit is that this train bypasses CBE and touches only PTJ.So lost time in MAS-KPD stretch could be saved here and also the schedule has 133mins for covering 143kms of this stretch.The next major challenge will be ERS-TVC route which on leaving ERS at 4:30am will find difficult to reach TVC at 7:30 as the route is single laned at some places.So i hope this train could reach TVC either late by some 30mins or may be perfect timing which has rare chances.
Anyhow,going to witness these actions live that day since I am a passsenger on this train...:-p

Re# 1592658-40              
And as expected railways has shown their real face.Now they have altered both the arr and dep times of this train from TVC as 00614 arr:7:45am instead of prev 7:30am and 00615 dep as 9:15pm frm TVC instead of prev dep of 9:30pm thereby taking the total journey to 12:45hrs.(Change could be noticed in the irctc booking site).I think they will keep on increasing the total jrny time to 16hrs as they get enough and more passengers and fool all.

Had a journey in our Janshatabdi after a long time from tvc-ers!!Very much delighted and happy to see that the ads on the coaches has been removed and most of the coaches are of the typical janshatabdi style...:-)
At the same time,it is very disappointing that the train was held at haripad for 20 minutes for crossing for intercity due to which the train arrived ers late by 15mins.

    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...
