'littered platforms, broken sliding doors, and betel juice-stained walls". Most passengers don't know how to use the facilities at the station. People lacking civic sense'. These are some of the words and sentences used in the article. Bangalore City and Yeshwanthpur which manage much more trains and passengers seems to be far better.

SWR works on many passenger friendly aspects like:
1. Not connecting YPR line and JTJ line at SBC. Instead, hotel and vehicle parking area are built.
2. MYS SBC journey time kept almost unchanged despite doubling and electrification.
3. Not permitting or coordinating with BMTC for start of buses from SBC railway area.
4.
...
more...
Not running any local train between SBC SMVB and YPR SMVB. Passengers can use Ola Uber. No buses connecting these terminals. Metro connection to SMVB is totally ruled out.
5. Not linking Hosur line and YNK line while developing SMVB terminal.
6. Trains from Hosur side to YPR avoid SMVB.
7. Just one Karnataka centric train starts from SMVB.
8. Holding Chalukya at YPR for 3 hours daily so that passengers can be awake in the early morning to take care of their luggage. Business opportunity for vendors.

Only thing pending is banning passengers from reaching railway station ЁЯдФ. Actions already in progress in this direction!!.

There is an obsession with beautification in the current regime. Look and feel seems more priority rather than capacity increase, increasing pf length and so on.

I totally agree with you, necessary steps have to be taken on the below mentioned points.

Travel SAFE

1. RailFanning does NOT MEAN dangerous pics/videos.
2. Doorplating pics/youtube videos are strictly FORBIDDEN in IRI.
3. Take plenty of food pics and other safe pics.
4. Write human interest narratives to make the pics interesting.
5. Enjoy blogging and travelling SAFELY.

REMEMBER: YOUR LIFE is the most precious thing, NOT RailFanning.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
