If you want your favourite seat in General Class of Lucknow Varanasi Shuttle Superfast then follow my trick. This trick is used by most of the daily and experienced travellers and newbies are not familiar with it. From Lucknow, this train departs at 6:00 PM and usually the boarding starts after 5:15 PM. But this train is either already standing at the run-through line between plateforms or at the yard towards Dilkusha Cabin. You can sneak into the train when the train is standing there. Some gates are usually already opened and you can enter into that coach before the train actually enters the plateform. But you have to come 2 hour early to do this trickЁЯШЬ

Even I have done the similar thing in INDB-HBJ Intercity , it used to be parked in stabling line between PF 3 and 4, so I used to board the GS coach of this train while train being parked there, and I am talking about my college time 10-11 years back.

Agree
In case of RKMP-MYS along with composition the route and timing also matters. IR has provided most pathetic TT to it and route is also not prefered by passengers. Bhopal doesn't have demand to core Karnataka except for Bengaluru, and time taken by this train is much more than that of other trains on this route also BPL Div hasn't learn anything from their previous experience with HBJ-DWR special, that train used to run full only in HBJ-PUNE-HBJ section and remains empty till DWR. But still BPL Div choses the same route but this time they also ignored Pune. Also priority on this route is very bad, it is already slow train with ample amount of slack but still 6 hour delay got added. How in the world WCR thought that it will get passengers in this scenario?

1 way in which this special and even the originally IRTTC proposed train to MYS can be saved it to re route it via KCG so that Bhopal gets connectivity to Hyderabad as well. And follow old 12650 KSK slot till YPR. Only then this will get good patronage and yes change composition as well to 8 SL 3 3E, 4 3A, 2 2A and 1 HA.

    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...
