ir never declares a strike,its the political parties and others unsocial elements due to which railway gets effected,so its better to be aware of it before anything bad happens in your journey

Hi guys, can any one guess there is a train having two separate names from both side. For example same train running with different name from up side and different name from down side. It is only because of its running purpose.

Dear Moderator, still distance between New Delhi to Kalka has not been changed. All the source e.g. indianrail.gov.in, irctc.co.in, indian railway time table and also announcement in the train says its 303 km. why there is further discussion.

Re# 345149-1                  
The correct rail distance between New Delhi and Kalka is 269 kms, as shown on this site. All the quoted sources, govt. publications, in-train announcements and derivative sources which say 303 kms. are incorrect. Till now, all sites and publications have derived rail distances from the government source, and have taken the same for granted, without any independent verification.
This is the first site that computes rail distances independently, and in almost all cases, the distances quoted here are accurate with at most 0.1% error.
Thanks.

Re# 345149-2                  
But how we can confirm that 269 is correct distance. For this the only source is Train Loco Pilot, did we have confirmed from them.

Loco pilots or passengers with independent GPS devices may provide verification. Thanks.

I am not happy with the answers. From which source you have confirmed. If GPS it might be correct or might be wrong.

TAAG 2011 Table 27 says 268 and Table 45 says 307. As table 27 gives the breakdown, perhaps that is correct, but I do not know

Look at Table 27 this way: New Delhi to Panipat 85; Panipat to Kurukshetra 67; Kurukshetra to Ambala : 42; Ambala to Chandigarh: 46 and Chandigarh to Kalka: 24... totaling 264. Now we need to check the individual sections...

Right Mr. Iyer, Rajdhani concept only to connect Delhi to all State Capitals. Some states still doesn't have Rajdhani. This I have mentioned in my earlier blog.
Below states don't have Rajdhani:
1. Goa - Goa
2. Rajasthan - Jaipur (Served by Ahmedabad Rajdhani; Due to distance not required)
3. Haryana & Punjab - Chandigarh (Due to distance not required)
4. UP-Lucknow (Served by DBRT Rajdhani only 1 day)
5. UK-Dehradun (Due to distance not required)
6. Arunachal Pradesh-Itanagar (Doesn't having Rail Line)
...

10. Meghalaya-Shillong (Doesn't having Rail Line)
11. Mizoram-Aizol (Doesn't having Rail Line)
12. Nagaland-Kohima (State Capital Doesn't having Rail Line but state served by DBRT Rajdhani)
13. Sikkim-Gangtonk (Doesn't having Rail Line)
14. Tripura-Agartala (Doesn't having Rail Line)
15. Andaman-Nicobar Island (Doesn't having Rail Line)
16. Daman & Diu-Daman (State Capital Doesn't having Rail Line but state served by Mumbai & August Kranti Rajdhani)
