Having traveled in this train a few times, i have noticed that this train has the longest unofficial halt for a superfast train; reaches Allahabad at 23:00 hrs and departs not before 00:30 and sometimes as late as 00:50 hrs. Given the time of the day most people would not care. And this was not an one off case. Arrival / dep of Rajdhanis at ALD is the primary cause, so the railway coaching team could have scheduled the timing of this train from Varanasi accordingly. Any other superfast beats this?

New kid on the block. Brand new and red hot WAP4#22930 lying idle in Asansol yard. Not sure if this has been assigned to any yard as yet. Photo taken aboard 12381 Poorva express.

Twin Bhilai sequential WAG7 pair # 28420 and 28421 seen somewhere between Durgapur and Asansol. 28420 was pulling the dead 28421 with a BOBYN type rake in tow. The photo has been taken from inside the AC coach; hence the spotty image.

Re# 448482-23              
I agree for PRS its a problem standing in queue and having it cancelled. However if its e-ticket, prefer cancelling it. Ideally I would also want a refund of the ticket amount minus the transaction + tatkal charges before chart preparation; otherwise entire amt can be deducted. IR in that case can allow more tatkal tickets before displaying REGRET. There is no shortage of people opting for tatkal.

    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...
