Dear Admin,
Today i had send my 2 friends on 11019 dn konark express at 3PM from cstm from PF no:14.
Few queries about this train.
1.Why is this train always departing from PF no:14?
2.Why
...
more...
is the train not arriving on the PF atleast 40 minutes before schedule?
My view about this train as per above query.
1.is it because it is howrah bound, being very long distance.passengers have to walk all the way from suburban PF to reach to PF no:14 consuming lot of time.
2.Today the train arrived on the PF at 2:48PM, (this happens most of the time)due to which passengers have to spend more time locating their coach/berth No.
As far as the train is concerned it was found to be clean & hygiene.Good provision for mobile charging near the window seat.Seats have been made bit wider for LB, but compromised on cushion width(reduced).
Overall the rating for this train is 4 out of 5.
But the above query needs attention.suggestions welcome.
Tks/Rgds,
Prasad

Only platform no 14-18 of cstm can accomodate 22-coach train......hence may be 14 is used for departure....

This train has been leaving from Platform 14 since many years. Infact, I remember it departing from platform 14 way back in 1998 also.

I guess ur right, this cud be one reason that it's very lenghty train, therefore it can accomodate on PF 14 or 15, whereas other PF may not, considering the destination as well.

These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
