Train Blog<--- expand blog --->Jan 24 2010 (08:31PM)back to top Entry# 19219 Locked Add Bookmark Remove ![]() Author: NITIN RAWAT 27 posts himsagar exp se tej meri cycle chalti hai @anon: Jan 25 (02:25PM) May be Mr. Nitin Rawat wants the Himsagar to halt at a station and he can ride his cycle faster than Himsagar. Am I Right, Nitin? @shiva*: Jan 25 (03:22PM) well, let's all just appreciate the sarcasm - that the Himsagar is a very slow train. It is a fact. Himsagar is meant for unhurried journeys like honeymoon, sightseeing, etc. Mr. Nitin does not literally mean that he can ride his bicycle faster. When the train is going slow, then of course you can ride your bicycle faster. Anyway the point is clear. Himsagar is a slow train. And whoever wants to travel in it should make a note of the above points. End of discussion. @anon: Jan 25 (03:26PM) I agree and appreciate your views. I felt Mr. Nitin Rawat Had put views directly. @anon: Jan 25 (03:26PM) himsagar is the only train tat covers maximum no. of states and stations....and is an o.k. train....if u remove himsagar exp...it'd b a gr8 loss 2 IR ... @anon: Jan 25 (02:25PM) As I said before, Himsagar is a train meant for sightseeing, tourism, honeymoon, etc. No one is asking to remove this train. This train has a different purpose. Every train has its purpose. Simply, this is not the train to travel by, when you are in a hurry. Take a novel or partner, relax, enjoy the scenery. If you are in a hurry, you will get frustrated. As for the bicycle metaphor, I would like to address blogger#2, 2:25PM, pl. do not take it literally. It is a metaphor. When someone says "sher e punjab", you don't say "babbar sher punjabi nahin bol sakte, kyonki woh jaanvar hai". It is called a metaphor, and you use metaphors to be more expressive with language. @NITIN RAWAT: Whatever your cause and concern is, it is not good on your part to take shelter of Mumbai Rajdhani Express/2951 for airing your views. Mumbai Rajdhani is a pride train and a jewel in the coterie of Trains. @Kapadia *: Jan 25 (04:52PM) Good point. Thanks. This blog post has now been moved to the appropriate train. Does this train touches Ernakulam Junction? @first blogger: No. It stops @ Ernakulam Town (North). Ernakulam Jn. is just 3 kms away. Which is the Fa-rest Railway Station from New Delhi in India in all directions. Provide the distance in KM to avail LTC. May be the direct train not reach there. @first blogger: you want your cake and eat it too. you will be claiming LTC by not even knowing about the farthest place and not going there. some govt employees were caught doing these practices and were suspended. be good and do good. @first blogger Antartica Mamtha is going to introduce a Duranto from N. Delhi to Antartica. Are't yo ashamed of yourself just to have LTC like this man @anon: Jan 15 (07:34PM) Stupid,Any one can never start a Duronto connecting New Delhi and Antarctica. @anon: Jan 19 (08:35PM) that is a known fact. @anon: Jan 19 (08:35PM) Dear friend by meaning "Antartica" it is just a sarcastic. Anybody knows it is imppossible. I was just answerng the first bloggers question sarcastically and not only me the second blogger straightaway have asked him not to claim LTC like that. By going through my sentence anybody can understand that. I hope now you got it cleared Best of luck Route this train via Konkan Railway and as it is the longest running train in India,this train must be a superfast express too. After routing via Konkan Railway,this train must never stop at small stations. @first blogger: make this non stop, between Jammu and Kanniyakumari. They can run this from any route.. does not matter. why such trains are being run by railways taking 70 hours .. @anon: Dec 01 03:52PM whats the problem yaar....in Russia they run train from Moscow to Vladivostok which is some 8000-9000 kms and takes 7-8 days to complete the journey. @anon: Dec 01 04:05PM Well said, yaar. In fact, Russia has the longest rail networks in the world. Also, there is China, which is a larger country than India, and has longer train journeys. Without these 70 hour trains, how will people (especially poor people) travel from Delhi to Kanyakumari or Guwahati to Bangalore? Do you want them to pay expensive plane fare? Actually, the Sleeper fares in Indian Railways are very affordable to even the poorest people of India, and provide a relatively comfortable journey for 70 hours. Although long distance trains exist in many other countries, I believe IR is the optimum mix of price + comfort. This is the longest traveling train in India.But it is one of the worst trains too.This train is skipping big stations and halting small stations.Please stop this method.Please make this a Superfast Train by cancelling stops at Samba,Kathua,Dausya,Thanda Ur Parni,Kila Raipur,Ahmedgarh, Malerkotla,Thiruvananthapuram Pettai,etc.and giving stops at Varkala and Kayamkulam. Really we enjoyed alot while we were in Honeymoon trip Himsagar is a honeymoon train. Not for people in a hurry. Honeymoon couple in a general compartment? Not the best way to impress your new wife! By the time you reach Kanyaakumaari from JammuTavee you both will stink like hell. Remember the all india rail fragrance...?! :-) So make sure you both carry litres of perfume!! Dear Sir, Iam trying to book ticket from Ramagundam to Karur, but in irctc it is not showing that there in no such train. Himasagar is going in that route on Wedness day. Himasagar express is having slip route from Erode to Madurai, in that it travels through Karur station. For booking the ticket how can I proceed. Gsk-Ramagundam. Try to get the results with Stn RDM & Stn KRR only for the date on wednesday for SL & 2A, you will get the results, dont try for 3A. Perfect Jitesh ji ! On the slip route, 3AC is not available while onthe main route (JAT - CAPE), it is also available with options of 2AC and SL. Thank You Mr Jain i enjoyed a lot with my girl friend.....coz i got maximum time to spend with her... it's name is only express but its a bull cart.....so i suggest those who hav gf.....plz travel through this train.....u wil njoy.bye happy journey.from aman...mukerian punjab very good to know. If you want to spend time with your girlfriend or wife, then slow trains like himsagar are best, and rajdhani/shatabdi are worst. :-) Well those who have time can travel by Jammu Rajdhani + Trivandrum Rajdhani and save abt 13 hours including a 5 hr wait at New Delhi. यार ओर कुछ नही आता हमे खुशी होनी चाहिए की ये देश की सबसे लंबी दूरी की ट्रेन है यार ये गाडी बहुत ही बोर करती है मेरे भाई ..... कश्मीर से कन्याकुमारी तक चलती है तो बोअर तो करेगी ही ना? आपको जाना है तो जाओ नहीं तो न जाओ... one of the trains unifying our country we must be proud of it that is good train and saale proud on this train BECOZ THIS TRAIN IS HAVING THE LONGEST ROUTE IN INDIA, COVERING FROM KASHMIR TO KANYAKUMARI, THE SENTENCE IS TRUELY FITTED ON IT KASHMIR SE KANYAKUMARI TAK BHARAT EK HAI. I enjoyed lot in this train, I was going to Vijaywada from Jammu. Me and my wife got down @ Delhi and then take a Cab for Agra and Spend 2.5 hours @ Agra and again board this train @ Agra Cant station. So funny expierence I have. It shows how the Railways waste precious time of the Public at LARGE. Undue stoppage at New Delhi for 60 Minutes and at Nizamuddin for 40 Minutes. From Arrival at New Delhi to Departure from Nizamuddin, it takes 115 Minutes. Yet excepting feeling sorry, nothing else. Good you enjoyed, bad that most of others had to undergo such a long stoppage, worthless. - S K Jain USE THIS TRAIN IF YOU HAVE ENOUGH SPARE TIME µÊþ│"053Å2Û5D8¶↑(ß This is a coded comment? This is probably the most ideal train for Hookers in general compartment. फर्स्ट क्लास charges this is the worrrst train i've ever traveled in the service is not good at all.It was around 1 hour late the last time i travelled in .s I have travelled by this train. Himsagar is more a tourist train (kashmir-kanyakumari) than for transportation. don't travel by this train if you are in a hurry to get to your destination. this is good trian in india shankar likes this train. it is good for honey moon couples in general compartment | 27 halts between Jammu Tawi and New DelhiMake sure to visit the official site and double-check the timetable.
