You want something to be done / undertaken by the Ministry of of Rlys. You have to make a request to the appropriate Commercial Manager in the division. Also we are unable to provide any further information as you have not mentioned on what grounds you were charged an excess fare.

Ltt Kcvl Garibrath, Janshatabdi, MAO ERs Weekly special etc are short distance trains i. e. less than 2000 km distance to be covered so they can be allowed stops like Tirur etc. But Marusagar is a long distance superfast train with good speed. Stops like this will decrease the speed of the train. As of Mangala Lakshadweep Express it has a tag of slow train as it has many unnecessary stops.

Right Tirur is not only the station in Kerala and all the superfast trains more than 2000 kms should compulsorily not be given stops at stations like Tirur. E Ahmed will remain Railwy minister for a limited period till the reshulffling of the Cabinet. All the good trains enroute can't be ruined because of personal interests

Mangala Express is in superfast category. There is more running time given for Mangala Express when comparing with normal express trains also. So stops like Tirur will not make the train late running.

Garib Rath, Jan shatabdi express are running below 2000 km on its trips. Basically these are running in short distance.
But in the case of Marusagar Express, Kerala Sampark Kranti Express, Dehradun Express & Amritsar Express, they are running around 3000 kms & also very less time for travelling from source to destination. These trains are getting good collection from their current stoppages. So any new stoppage for these trains will make late running of these trains. Actually, no new stoppage is needed. For such superfast trains, stops are given after a distance of minimum 75 kms. Only important junction stations are given below 75 kms distance. (Eg:- Shoranur Jn, Mangalore Jn, Vadodara Jn, Ratlam Jn etc...)
After the Electrification between Shoranur & Mangalore, EMU (Electrical & Multiple Unit) Trains will be started. These trains will be stopped at all stations. Also the frequency of EMU trains will be larger than the current passenger trains.
These people should understand one more thing. The train no 6311/6312 Bikaner Express having halt at Tirur. Why this train is not having a stop at Kasargod?

6311/6312 is not a superfast train so it stops at Tirur. Because of such requests the trains slow down when they come to Kerala.

Sir, it's just how different people see it.
One is called clock time or ampm time: hours are between 1 and 12, but then you have to specify am or pm, to avoid ambiguity.
The other is called "military" time or 24-hour time: hours are between 0 and 24, but you don't need to specify am or pm.
We are using ampm time for blog entries, hours are between 1 and 12, but with am/pm, so 12:30am is 12:30 after midnight, and 12:30pm is 12:30 after noon. For train timetables, we are using military time 0 - 24.
By convention we cannot use 00:42am, since that would be wrong for common time.
That is how computers see it. As a validation of the above, you can see your Windows digital clock on your own personal computer usually (at the bottom right corner). After midnight, you will see that your own PC or laptop tells you that the current time is 12:30AM, etc. It will not say 00:30AM.

Thanks a lot for your response.
Actually the blog entry was borne out of a divided opinion at my end and it was so considered looking at the train time table timings which follow the 24 hr time format. However the blog section, as correctly pointed out by you, is following 12 hr am/pm format and hence no question for any zero hour. The matter stands clarified and regret for inconvenience.

Chart is generally prepared 3 hrs before departure of train. As you have already have confirmed tickets and have been already allotted berths, they will not be changed after preparation of chart. You have to request some co-passengers to exchange seats.

Marusagar Express Train No. 2977/2978 was running without a Pantry Car till May, 2009. A complaint was made by me in May this year for not having a Pantry Car in the train on govt. grievances portal www.pgportal.gov.in and fortunately my complaint was well attended to. A letter was issued to IRTC by the Railway authority allotting a Pantry car in the said train. Now I want to check whether this has been implemented or not. Can anybody check this and inform me please.

This is the most scenic train that you can take to get from Jaipur to Kerala. The coastal stretch is passed during the day time and its a pleasure to travel this route, any time of the year. A must do for a leisurely, scenic travel.
The downside of the train is that there is no Pantry Car and the stations on the Konkan Railway (from Panvel to Mangalore) do not have adequate refreshment options. It becomes especially difficult if you are traveling with children.
