Dear all, I travelled in this train from TCR to BSR on 29th of June. i reached TCR station at around 8 30pm. The platform was jampacked with travellers for 12624 Chennai mail. As soon as the Chennai Mail went, the platform became empty. The 16338 Okha Exp. arrived at pl no.2 at Thrissur at 21 15pm, 5 mins before schedule. I entered A1 compartment and searched for my SU berth 46. But to my surprise, 46 was the side lower berth and there was no SU berth!!!!!. I asked the attendent the reason for it, who ponted out that the coach was a 1993 built one!! I will attach the coach layout of this coach as I have never seen such a layout. The coach, as said earlier, was very old one. The coach and the toilets were clean. It was running as per schedule till Pen, a station near...

    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...
