Is it Howrah or CST yard..??

Naah! It's Rajkiran's Yard :)
Somewhere in Japan i Guess :D

Just like that, to display LHB coaches :P

Heavy fog in NCR for this train.
the train started 1 hrs and 3 mins late from Patna.
Reached Mgs at around 1048pm.
Started from there and crossed ald after 2 am.
Reached Kanpur outer at 0617 hrs after Rajdhanis overtake.
Departed from Kanpur after Gomti.
Was running neck to neck with Gomti and waiting at outers where Gomti halted, but was never allowed to overtake Gomti.
After Tdl lagged behind Gomti and could not recover and was delaye.

this shows the cheapness of ncr,cheapest div cheaper than ecr! Ecr to ab aacha ho gaya! Late runin ki koi enquiry ni hoti kya?

RIP SAMPORNA KRANTI

ECR bhi kuch kam nahi hai. 12394 SK crossed Mgs after 0600 hrs today and it could easily have reached before 10 am and started on time but ECR delayed it to 1100 hrs and then rescheduled it.. Ye toh koi baat nahi hui maximum times ye Mgs 4-6 baje ke bich cross karti hai aur waha se ye right time aa sakti hai, par ECR ise delay karke reschedule karta hai..

Very soon GZB-MBD-LKO-BSB line will be electrified and operative. Railway can run sampoorna kranti on this route as it is non-stop. It will not effect the NDLS-PNBE passengers also and train can regain its lost glory soon.

soon? not before next year for sure

Yes, surely and it will require some rescheduling for it too.. As it will take a little more time.
It can have tech halts at Lko-Bsb-Mgs..

Why dont high officials enquire for the late runnin??
Ya it shuld run via bsb lko,after electrifictn!

They are too busy ruling their roost. Many times I tried to bring this matter to the notice of Railway Board through pgportal. But all useless. situation getting more worse day by day.. They are busy looting pax through. Increasing superfast charges.
Increasing fares.
Service tax for such poor service.
Cancelllation charges..

special treatment for 12394 SK at Ald today.
It reached Subedarganj at 0509 hrs.
Reached Ald at 0543 hrs.
Distance from subedarganj to Ald 45 kms aprox, but Railways says its just 4 kms.
Departed from Ald at 0620 hrs. A halt of 37 mins at Ald.
They say its a non-stop between Ndls and Patna with Tech halts.
Is it not cheating

12393 SK departed before gomti for a Change and after Panki it has covered 137 kms in 1 hrs and 29 mins.. Almost 90 kmph.

yesterday registered another complain at pgportal

Now u should register a complain in Consumer forum,IR will have to pay the compensation :P

when i will travel, I am certainly going to do that.. just waiting for my turn in November

trainenquiry.com
Not showing sampoorna kranti in its search.
Have they removed it.
This is the step railway board have taken.
Instead of making it punctual, they have removed it from the list of trains in trainenquiry.com

even 139 not telling its status. It says invalid train..

its an overnight train so no need of catering and pantry

They used to attach 2 SL coaches and one AC2T and one AC3T at bangalore..has it been withdrawn?

catering available between MYS-SBC

yeah...no attachments/detachments at bangalore now

may be minti sir, but i travelled from kgi, and almost all were sleeping...none interested in food...also no vendors from kgi...not even tea...even the platform had minimum amenities as rightly said by you...

2 minutes walk from KGI station,you hit a main road where there is no dearth of any eats or drinks. Now that I have told you this,you will have to visit KGI and try these whether or not if you have a train to board from this place. :)

for the next few years, i ll b a regular in bangalore. seeing the lack of seats in trains from ypr to hwh, i ll hv to avail break journey for sure. looked for trains from sbc to mas and almost all hv high wl including kavery and mail...so wl b booking from kgi even the next time and wl check out the eateries...revision for anything is a must...so i hope even u ll join me nex tym...

I will, not for the eateries but just to give you company. :)

for kaveri exp book tkt from kengri for gnwl qouta lots of seats avl every time.

which train will come to gonda with electric engine next month

On day one it covered MB-ANVT in 02:15 to reach bang on time at it desti, which is nothing less than a blast!
New timings are welcome! The perfect train of the route! :)

it will be GD_LJN EMU! Electric trains will be starts from GKP only.

This has just taken my old words that it will reach on time! laaj rakh li meri :P
Well its alwys a blasting one! Had traveled couple of times but it reach alwys bang on time and a superhit train. :D

when from gkp

This year end or may be next yr March!

this train rocking in lko-gkp section one day it arrives 90 min late at gkp .overtakes bsk near basti reached lko before 5 min.awesom run on that day.in march 2012

but they not started the work at gkp

i think some tender work is pending! and also its a big task to electrified this station.

tab to kaafi time lag jayega is station ka electrification hone mein

haanji! waise hi time lag rha hai!

gkp-lko/ljn section jab se double line hua hai, tabse MPS bahut sudhar gya hai.
aur electrification ka kaam khalilabad tak pahuch chuka hai, wha tak poles lage hue hai, to shyad iss saal ke end tak gkp bhi electrified ho jaye

aur iss sapt kranti ko WDP4B kheech rha hai, jo sabse takatwar diesel loco hai, to time to cover up hona hi hai
maine gonda aur barabanki ke beech me wdp4b ko 120 kmph tak pahuchte hue dekha hai
/blog/post/665380

yes and even Vaishali and BSK too are doing a good job in this section..

yes

yes that i also know, its going on a good speed since last year and now very much work has done, looking on the progress and speed we can expect that gkp will be electrified by this year end.

I think in July we will see revision in TT for SF on this route :)

wat about the bridge on ghagra river
iis compleated or still under construction
what about jhs-cnb section can we see wapies comming from jhs side to cnb by june or july??

wat about the bridge on ghagra river
iis compleated or still under construction
what about jhs-cnb section can we see wapies comming from jhs side to cnb by june or july??

wat about the bridge on ghagra river
iis compleated or still under construction
what about jhs-cnb section can we see wapies comming from jhs side to cnb by june or july??

last year i saw that ohe pole has erected till jagtbela sehjanwah in nov 12

well that bridge was completed by november only only interocking was left bt by now i think its already completed.
No Update about JHS_CNB section :(

i had last visited on diwali only till then i had seen near about KLD poles were present.

thanks for the info sir
any member having info about cnb-jhs section

cnb-jhs section 90 percent completed

what about Electrification ?

so can we see wappies comming from jhs side by july??

What a run today!! Left GKP apprx 1 hr late and going to hit BBK again 30 min early!! Awesomely running :D

I am considering it as an option for MB-ANVT, as now the summer is approaching....
12558 always has a blasting run from ANVT-MB
I was very excited when i heard that the timings were to be changed, and it would be Reaching MB around 5 in the Morning...
Good Option...
(I just wished that it had some sort of a technical halt at GZB around 7:00,, But trains like this shouldnt be touched...)

yes this is now doing well on revised tt! and also a good option for mb pax to get touch with ndls with good timing :)

kya lucknow-gorakhpur section pura double ho chuka hai?

nhi

pura.

bole to nahi! Jahagirabadraj-barabanki and ghagraghat-choka ghat ke beech bridge ke liye baki hai bas.

daudna gonda ka engine he hai kya fayada yeh sab krne ka bhi

daudna gonda ka engine he hai kya fayada yeh sab krne ka bhi

sirf gd ka engine doudta hai idhar prabhu ??

puch rahe ho ya bata rahe ho ? agar puch rahe ho to hume apne ghaziabad ke alawa kahi ka kuch pata nahi

tab hum bata dete hain idhar bahut saare sheds ka loco doudta hai like mGS, LKO, JHS, SGUJ, etc etc.

bihar sampark kranti acchi gaadi hai udhar ke liye...
kuch din bad pura ghaziabad wale loco se jayegi

haan so to hai wo kuch din jaldi biten to acha hai :D

Revised Running time would be 3.40 Hrs (between GKP-LJN) becoz train running nonstop in route & it is easily maintain 75-80KMPH.

we cant see any train with electric loco upto gonda till this year end because neither emu will start from gonda nor express train will give electric loco from gonda.

Yeah after revision in timings of 12557,this train is run bang on time.

Awesome Run! Left GKP 40 min late and Running 32 min early @Ghaghra ghat! What a makeover in 220km of distance :)

Today Again! Covered almost 50 lost min and running before time :D
Amazing show on newly doubled GKP_LKO track, one can think what will be the show when it will be electrified.

super show if it will electrified will run with avg speed more than 80 km ph

Distance will be covered in 3 and 30min only, its an achievable time, which NER officials had said previously :)

Supershow continuing b/w GKP_LKO, crossed GD jn. 40 min early! this indicates that how much improvement has been done b/w GKP_LKO track.
cover 151km in 2 hrs, 76kmph avg speed.

Today Reached 40 mins late at GKP now it will definitely hit LKo much before time coz of all we know the superb track b/w GKP_LKO. :D

Crossed MIR/Maijapur @ 21:45 8m early (approx.) on Sat Mar 16 today also early running

Superb Run B/W GKP_LKO today again! departed 40 min late frm GKP and hits Safedabad (LKO Outer) 19 min early. Supershow :D

Reached JBR/Jahangirabad Rj @ 21:32 84m early on Fri Mar 22 today also rocks

itna jaldi bhi pahuchne ki kya jaroort thi, ab to LKo outer pe panchayat karegi ye train..!!
Super Awesome track b/w GKP_LKO. this july we can see TT revision :D

Avg speed, 87km/hr apprx :D

Wow!! What a cover!
Left GKp around 1 and half hour late and just reached BBK 3 min early.
We may see another revision of TT for this train b/w GKP_LKo :D

Today left 30min late from GKP, and currently covered its lost time and running before 30 mins :D :D

are baap re,kya make up kar rahi hai...phaadu...

ye pura blog isiliye create kiya hai! that in next TT revision isko aur speed up mile. :)

Superb Track!! GKP_LKo
15min late were at GKP and Reaching Barabanki ~1 hr before! this run in just 250 kms. :D
Speed-up needed in this section in TT, may be in July we will see :D

bht time lagega MB-Lucknow section per 2002 me work start hua tha jo 2007 me complete hone tha lekin 6 year delay ho gaya hai still only three train on this section running with electric loco

GKP-LKO section par ye train non stop hai
plus WDP4B isko kheechta hai, to ye mast hokar daudti hai.
Dec tak GKP-LKO section electrified ho jayega, to iss section ka MPS badh jayega, tab shyad iska ek aur revision pakka hai, chahe ise WAP mile ya na mile

han ji bilkul but mujhe ye lagta hai ki iska slack time isko help karta hai time make up karne mai aur to aur train kafi late ho jati hai bihar mai then ye make up kar leti hai! ab dekhiye kya hota hai!

sahi kaha.
iss section me slack time kaafi trains ko madad karta hai.
MPS badhne se bas travel time kam hoga

haan! GKP_GD flat in 2hrs now and GD-LKo- 1 nd half hour :)
.
Magar trains ko rukna padta hai.. generally saari on time lko ya gkp pahuchti hai, is kaaran se.

saari SF ontime hoti hai, ya cover up kar leti hai iss section me.
baaki dekho, aage kya revision karte hai

See this, electrification notice at sahjanwa station, 17 km frm GKP
shows how close GKP is from gettin electrified

I have personally seen work at shehjanwa in march last....!! i have clicked it.

sir i agree
ye to wha transformer lagane ke liye hai

In Mar this yr, MPS of track was raised between GD and GKP from 105 to 120
Source Entry# 683801

another superb run by 12557 Crossed CLJ/ColonelGanj @ 20:50 71m early (approx.) on Fri Apr 26

71 min early OMG!!! BGKT's tiger roaring >>>>> !!!

Now 77 min early!!!! in just 200kms :D

Are you travelling AJ ?

Kaaaash!!! no sir i am in delhi only :)

now 79 min early

Burning tracks!!!
Awsome

waise jab koi jaldibazi karta hai, to kehate hai ki aram se, koi train to nahi chooti ja rahi na.
but ab iss train ko kya kahe :P

Its not burning anything, but just old wrong updates making irregular in-between station updates!!
Following this, it shows the train arrive last station in-time & then the next station it crossed with timing earlier then preceding station!!
Kindly check update: yest, today as per IRI & today as per indianrail.gov.in!!

Guruji app 26 aur 25 mai confuse ho gaye... jo TE ka hai wo 25 ka data hai maine check kiya tha pehle.. mai aishe nhi post karta.. maine apne ek dost jo onboard tha ek din usse check karwaya hai ye cheez :)

76km/hr avg speed nt possible ?? GKP_LKo having mps now of 120 nd above :)

very much possible, even WDP4 can do that.
on this section, i hv checked 12554 doing 120 kmph using GPS,
12557 non stop run in this section, so it can even cover 250 km in 3-3.5 hours!!! :)

Well, i know what i have posted!!
I posted to show that no such impact of changed TT remain for the train & it get late even (which was clear with 25 TT)!!
Further, dont drag different aspect, as u tagged train to run 79 Min before time, while running status clearly displayed the train was running just on-time or slightly late by few minutes!!

today 40 min Early on the same GKO_LKO Section :D

Etna Before chal rahi h..Tab to TT revision hona chahiya..
GKP-LKO fully doubled h na..??

Haan ji Sir!! Bas ek stn ke beech baaki hai bbk ke pass jo ki bas pura hi hai aur usse jyade farak nhi padta ;)
.
Haan is baar lag rha hai ki kuch to revision hona chahiye.

burning the tracks
who said SF trains needs WAP-5, see what a WDP-4 can do :D

Not only the train, but the blog is running awesomely too. :P

BGKT WDP-4 for SaptKranti Rocks since starting :P

yup
I think TT revision hoga, aur isi train ka nahi sabhi trains ka hoga, once we see WAPies loitering around on this section ;)

July 2014. mai revision pakka dikhega saari sfs ka :D

pakka
aur saath hi WAP-5 aur WAP-7 bhi dikhenge ;)

Kash yahi hal BSB-GKP m bhi ho Sir :P
ye bhi important route per NER espe dhan nahi d raha h...

BSB-GKP route, BTT se alag hote hai rone lagta hai.. itna pichda route hai ki kuch nhi kaha ja sakta hai 80 ka mps bhi muskil se hoga udhar to...!

Wo to Dikhenge hi usko koun rok sakta hai ;)

BSB-GKP par abhi itni important trains nahi hai, to ho sakta hai use baad me prefrence de

usko bas ek red-light hi rok sakti hai :P

ye jo BBK-GKP-CPR ka doubling ho rha hai pehle ye nitish ji raaz mai GKP-BSB-ALD ko propose tha.. preference mai but laloo ji aa gaye aur preference BBK-GKP-CPR ko mil gaya...!!

hahahaah!! agreed!!

its a perfect pack for MB-Delhi travelors too dats why :P

IR ki sabse badi dikkat yahi hai
jo mantri aaya, apne hisab se chalaya
nitish aaye to change, laloo aaye to change
didi ji ndls-hwh par dhyan dene lagi
bansal sahab ne dhyan nahi diya,
in sab me janta ka kya haal hua, kisi ko nahi pta

ye bahut purani raam kahani hai....!! kya kar sakte hain :(

karm karo, fal ki chinta na karo
train me travel karo, time par pahuchne ki chinta na karo

wah waah waaaah!!! :P well Sapt kranti Aur BSK mai baith ke mai kabhi aisha nhi bola ;)

bola to maine Vaishali me bhi kabhi nahi hai, aur na hi kabhi soch sakta hun
but mai tab bhi bharosa nahi karta IR ka :P

hehehehehe!! IR ka koi bharosha nhi... 40 min early aur kabhi kabhi 72ghante late :P :D

wahi na.
iss train ka bas ek advantage hai, ki ye NCR se nahi jaati
warna NCR ki log kitni taarefein karte hai, sabko pta hai ;)

Arey ye NCR se pehle jaati thi tab bhi iski yahi shan aur aan thi.. !! Mai ek baar aligrah pe tha aur ye train cross ki.. zooooommm ekdum.. tabse hi hum to fan ho gaye shaheb..!! well purani timings frm NDLS 18:00 kaafi sahi thi.

haan, ye to hai
ANVT par shift karke thoda issue to ho gya hai
but ANVT se bhi purana TT bahut galat tha, jab ye train subah 4-5 bje wha pahucha deti thi, aur phir log wahi bhatakte rahe

uska bhukht bhogi mai bhi hua hu 2 baar :(
.
down mai 18:30 is best frm ndls :)

yup,
waise agar Feb me TT revice ho sakta hai, to ho sakta hai as soon as electrification poora ho jaye, to iska tt bhi revise karde
waise ise WAPie to milega nahi, but ise jarurat bhi kya hai :P

hehehehe!! exactly... Waise gazab ki baat hai ki itna dur loco jata hai but fail nhi hota.. jabki Gorakhdham ka maine kitni baar loco fail dekha hai.. in this terms BGKT WDP rocks :D

WDM-3 ab thoda outdated ho gya hai
waise i have experienced a WDP-4 getting failed, in AII Shatabdi in delhi itself.

ohh...!! WDP-4 got failed.. first time i am hearing this,..

iska route change hona chahiye ab

my dad was in that train.
it failed near daya basti, and was hauled back to delhi cantt
/blog/post/678270

kaha chage kara rahe ho sir?

rush kam karne k liye

kaha se jayegi ye fir... via sln na bol dena.... :P

to kaunsa route aap suggest karoge?

/train/21384 yeh dekho jara
isi raste se agar le jaya jaye isko toh rush kam ho jaega and punctuality aur badhegi

/train/21384 yeh raste se

aap zara GD-SCC route ke baaretin me thoda batayenge?
Kya iska MPS bhi 130 ke aas pass hai?

mujhe nahi pata
AJ ji bata paaenge jyyada acche se

mere ko poori tarah se bharosa hai ki nahi hai
but ab jab AJ bhai ke upar daal diya hai to ekhte hai kya nateeza aata hai

mai hairan ho gaya tha yeh naya route dekh k
isse LKO train touch he nhi kregi

This route is low MPS & just one SF ply over it (Mourdhwaj Exp)!! Even the route dont have concrete Sleeper & insufficient ballast to cushion!!
Comparative analysis of both train's schedule will showcase, who's faster & which route has the impact!!
Trivia: Saharasa GR was announced via Sitapur without NDLS touch & was non SF, but never run that way & scheduled via LKO-NDLS with high Avg Speed!!

Thanks to Vinay Sir,
ye nya route fail hai
hum yha Sapt Kranti ki speed ki baat kar rahe hai, iss route se to ye train sprinter se crawler ban jayegi

This isnt a new route!!
Its running since long & serve bye-pass to freight traffic towards GKP without touching LKO!!
Now IR developing it for fast passenger access route but still its quite a time!!

new route for SK, it is fail
it is better via LKO, coz of its awsome run
n as u said, the SCC router will take quite some time. so once it is developed, thn will think again :)
maybe till thz, MB-GZB route is electrifies, n we se a WAP for SK :)

Gkp-Lko ka mps 130 hai :)

Burwal jn -SCC ka electrification ka kaam bhi start hone wala aur Doubling ka bhi magar wo sab raam bharoshe hai.. dekho kya hota hai aur kab tak hota hai :)

i knw buddy
my question was regarding GD-SCC section
GKP-LKO par to maine bhi vaishali ko 120 par capture kiya hai :D

Interesting question:
Any train with pure LHB rake in LKO-GKP section?
i knw LTT-GKP have hybid LHB

no.

burwal se alag hote hi us section ka mps 80-90 ho jata h :(

Vinay Sir ne kaha tha, ki abhi IR uss section ko develop kar rha hai
dedkho kab tak ho payega

length jade nhi hai.. ho jayega jaldi hi coz NDLS-LKO already doubled h via MB bas MB-GZB electrified bacha hai.. means after 1 or 2 yr these routes will make a diff :)
