Useful
Traveling to Sambalpur from Dhanbad aboard the Maurya Express. Post Hatia, the train has been largely vacant. After departing from Rourkela, I find myself the sole occupant of the coach, with no food vendors in sight. The atmosphere is eerily quiet, almost reminiscent of a ghost train.

Similar situation is for GKP-MLN express via LJN. It mainly connects the loop line passengers to Lucknow from Gorakhpur. But few pax choose it to go towards Mailani [not that it's a big station anyways]. It mostly gets day time daily passengers in SL and GN[which are packed] usually bound for Sitapur.

But, for no reason, it has ~10 AC coaches which run vehemently empty. Per coach has single digit pax post Lucknow and many of them are staff/police.

more...

Barauni-Lucknow too has a similar feel in AC post GKP but it's SL,GN and 3AE were atleast filled. It was 2A and 1A that was empty.

    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...
