Generally SCR MMTS trains in Hyderabad/Secundrab area of AP has the frequency of 25 - 30-40 minutes on LPI -FM-LPI and LPI-HYB-LPI route As per Railway Ministry directive SCR is supposed to introduce MB ladies special train on Faluknuma-Lingmpalli-Faluknuma route. But wisefully SCR has just converted one of existing regular MMTS trains as MB Ladies Special. As a result without any increase in number of ladies commuters the train goes almost empty with hardly 25% utilisation with empty seats where as gap between two regulars for general passengers has increased to 70 to 80 minutes on both direction on peak hours leaving male passengers standered at all stations. As a result the MMTS Train like 47155 (FM-LPI MMTS) in morning hours and 47190 (LPI-FM) in evening hours gets extreamly over crowded at all stations. Incidently in afternoon time between 1300 and 1400 Hrs the train freqency between LPI-FM is 15...

minutes but in eveing time the gap is 70 minutes between 1730 to 1840 hrs on Lingampalli -Faluknuma route.
The daily officer goes /passengers bound for stations like Begampet / Hitec city stations are from Falkumna/Kachiguda & long distance passenger bound for Kachiguda/Secundrabad from suburban areas are the worst sufferers. Hitec City contributes 50% of MMTS passenger tarffic as it meets the needs of Hitechies working in software park are the worst sufferers.
Request SCR to introduce additional MMTS trains in peak hours from Faluknuma in moring hours and at 18 hrs from Lingampalli towards Faluknuma for general passengers and to convert the MB ladies back as ladies spl in the best interest of common public and to avoid revnue loss to Rlys./

Re# 261335-66              
I request all rail fan members from Hyd to visit any MMTS station enroute (LPI_FM) and have a close look at the crowd for 47190 leaving LPI at 1840 hrs , Arr at SC - 1925 hrs (which runs always 10 minutes minimum late daily) which comes after gap of 70 minutes. You will be surprised to see people hanging on closed motor coach door in very unsafe manner.....
As a association members we have suggested many alternatives like moving 57659 SUR-FM Passenger on time before 47190 & re-introduce Tandur -Bolaram (which is diverted to HYB since july 2011) for decongestion, but it is knowingly detained by controller between VKB-LPI and allowed to move only after 47190.

On behalf of MMTS Passengers association I thank you all & also welcome the more support, postings and suggestions from all railfan members of Hyderabad as we plan to meet the GM/SCR very soon. Any willing passenger can email me. Pls also see my posting where in you will find MMTS fares are overcharged when compared to any suburban fare of any zones!

Re# 261335-67              
The MB ladies spl between FM-LPI and LPI- FM runs on even sundays with no takers. Today I saw MB Ladies spl arriving at PF 4 of SC at around 19 hrs ( 3o minutes late) and left at 19.12 hrs. Hardly there were any female passenger in the coach except the female whistle blower constables. Its good that they are not blowing whistle that much at each approching stations alerting the male passengers!
Guess SCR is absorbing this overhead expenes under the wire for running this train on sundays/public holidays. Needless to say such type of waste costs are recovered from regular passengers thru some other means!

Great news. Finally men are equally treated in the women dominated country.
Many thanks to the women for their low patronage and many more thanks to the Human Rights Commission.

    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...
