Ridiculous. I don't see how its gonna help. They cannot tighten up the security, and now they want to add to the inconvenience of the passengers.

Lol. Nowhere is he criticised for finishing a bottle of whiskey during a day's work, while at the same time drug addicts, alcoholics are shown to be a problem for the station. :P

It must have been the middle of March last year, or maybe February. I don’t remember. But what I remember clearly is that I had shot an email to our moderator, to relieve me of my admin privileges, and relieve of my membership. I had been unhappy with the way site was being managed, and the way things were going. Race blogs, trolls running amok, fighting among members, even admins. I still am. But then, I’m no one to complain. Adapt, or die, says Darwin. Furthermore, increasing academic pressures prevented my active and regular participation. Therefore, I decided to take an out. I ceased contact with the entire rail fanning community, because I wanted to leave it all behind.
.

...
more...
couldn’t keep my distance for long though. I couldn’t let go of PNRs, my first love here. I would still come back, to find anything rail related, for an abundant reserve of rail knowledge is IRI. I joined again, with a different identity, around June. I kept a low profile, since conspiracy theories about old members returning with fake profile spread like wild fire here. I would log in once in a fortnight, or a month. Predict a few PNRs, have a look at the forum. That was it.
.
Then why am I writing this? What’s the reason of this emotional epiphany? Many of you would think who am I. I see many new faces. I see many new admins.
.
I believe a little thank you is in order. To the moderator, to the admins, and the members here. And the entire rail fanning community, inside and outside IRI for catalyzing, nurturing and developing my interest in railways, and especially locomotives. Owing to my expanded and an in-depth knowledge of the finer technicalities of railways, I landed a job at a big engineering multinational a week ago. I don’t think it would have been possible if it weren’t for my experiences here. I cannot assure anyone of my regular participation once again, for I have bigger responsibilities, and challenges coming up. But nevertheless, I wanted you all to be a part of this small achievement of mine. I owe this to IRI.
.
And the guy who deserves a special mention here is Zahaib, my partner in crime, who introduced me to this place. Grand party coming up dude…..

Travel SAFE

1. RailFanning does NOT MEAN dangerous pics/videos.
2. Doorplating pics/youtube videos are strictly FORBIDDEN in IRI.
3. Take plenty of food pics and other safe pics.
4. Write human interest narratives to make the pics interesting.
5. Enjoy blogging and travelling SAFELY.

REMEMBER: YOUR LIFE is the most precious thing, NOT RailFanning.

    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...
