Only passengers with reservation & people with railway pass occupy seats...but if you have ticket, then you will be given priority over pass....

WAG-5 at its utterly best!! Overcrowded Lalgola Fast Passenger does sectional MPS through BNXR!!!
.
.
Under the beautiful sunset, an ASN (Asansol) shed WAG- 5 hauling the 53177 Sealdah (SDAH)- Lalgola (LGL) Fast Passenger gallops through Bidhan Nagar Road (BNXR) station at the sectional MPS of 70 km/hr. Only high priority trains are seen to speed at more than the MPS here. Was excited to see the acceleration made by the Waggie. Afterall, the station is only 3 kms away from Sealdah.
Lalgola, a small town at 225 kms north of Kolkata is situated on the India-Bangladesh border. Though Lalgola does not have any railway connectivity with Bangladesh, but it is a terminal

station which hauls more than a dozen of trains everyday. Only Gede and Bongaon (these two locations are also at border) have railway connectivity with Bangladesh, and the Kolkata Chitpur Terminal (KOAA)- Dhaka MAITREE International Express uses the Gede route to cross the border.
Due to extreme rush, almost a dozen of passengers, and a couple of Express trains travel between Lalgola (LGL)- Murshidabad (MBB)- Berhampore Court (BPC) and Kolkata everyday. Earlier the route was complete ruled by alcos, but after electrification was done in 2004 (now doublification is going on), half of the trains were given electric locos on a permanent basis, but the remaining half are still hauled by alcos.. While the electric ones are hauled by ASN WAG-5 , the alcos are hauled by WDM-2/ 3A of HWH/ BWN. And the MEMU was recently introduced a couple of months ago.
The main line of the Eastern Bengal Railway from Sealdah to Ranaghat, was opened in 1862 and extended to Kushtia, now in Bangladesh. The Calcutta terminus of the Railway was opened the same year in a tin-roofed shed at Sealdah.The Sealdah (SDAH)- Ranaghat (RHA)- Gede Line was part of the Calcutta- Siliguri (SGUJ) Main Line. After partition of India in 1947, the main line got truncated and what remained in West Bengal formed the Gede Branch Line. The Ranaghat- Lalgola Branch Line was opened in 1905.

It's only for today's view may be.
But there is no specific PF for this train from SDAH. It can be any PF from 1 to 9B as per my daily experience at SDAH.

since platforms are not fixed of locals, hence I think only local admins should update them because they know about them by personal experience ...

Re# 492800-12                  
Some new features regarding platform updations should be released by moderator sir.
1) Alphanumerical Platform Numbers.
2) No Fixed Platform. Depends on Availability.
3) Platform Sub-Tab against Station Page to Filter Train Names based on the arrival/departure of the same against specific platform numbers.
4) Occupancy alertness of nearby 2 platforms (For platform X status for Platform (X-1) and (X+1) for +/- 15 minutes within the arrival/departure of a train. This would help travelers to know from before about the rush expected while boarding/deboarding his/her train.

Re# 547162-1                  
this train does not seem to have sleeper coach.
if it has a sleeper coach owing to rsa, then it has been turned into unreserved coach during day time to facilitate local passenger travel. the one leaving lalgola at night and reaching sealdah early morning has a proper reserved sleeper coach.
