Entry# 911273              
Hi there,
I would like to introduce myself my name is Don Sear and currently live in London. I am very interested in Indian Railways and would appreciate some assistance with a hobby of mine that is railway related. I am a collector of used train tickets worldwide and would appreciate some assistance in obtaining a variety of different tickets of Indian Railways used? There are a few questions I would like to ask:
Do all tickets get collected at the end of the journey?
How
...
more...
are tickets collected on the longer distance journeys?
How would I be able to obtain tickets that are used, for my own collection.
The few I was fortunate enough to receive were defaced. I would like the tickets checked as illegible with pen by being heavily scribbled.
Is there anyone who can help me out?
Many thanks
Don Sear

Collected or just abandoned...both are true. In most of the big stations, Ticket checking staff will be waiting near exit to check the ticket from passengers and collect them normally (unless passenger demands that he needs it). Otherwise, passengers will abandon it.

Tickets are collected for record purpose,
After collecting them they make a detailed report about numbers of incoming passengers etc.

Dear Gentleman, Thanks for your posting reply.Even though we are different by cast, religion, region & so much, we are united together by way of this forum umbrella. Argument,debate, welcoming ,teasing or hurting one's views is quite common in any single family.By forgetting the evil things, let us march together towards progress by means of good views and thoughts.This is what my personal opinion to all our fellow members.With regards.

    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...
