This is a premium train where fares can increase with every seat booked. For such high fares, the run time is really slow. THe run time should have been on par with the Rajdhani. You get your facts right before commenting.

Re# 1297830-5              
What is right is right and what is wrong is wrong. It is as simple as that. This is premium train. In real terms, a SL ticket for 14 Dec, 2014 from Madgaon to Panvel on this premium costs more than a 3AC ticket in the Matsyagandha. Worst, the Matsyagandha actually overtakes this premium and arrives at Panvel way ahead. In other words, this train is nothing but fooling the public, who are ready to pay extra. This should be taken to the consumer forum. Railways is not serving the people, instead they are hell bend to exploit the general public

Agree, Mr. Gowda has not performed. Mr. Prabhu might be even worse. What's wrong with the BJP, are they going to give an important portfolio to a coalation partner and that too a party like the SS

Mumbai has always been neglected by past RMs. Let's hope the current RM does something for Mumbai. I really do not know what the solution is for Mumbai, considering the population explosion on local and long distance trains. Atleast, he should try and convert all local coaches to a minimum 12 cars.

The existing trains should be augmented. The major trains, Mangala, Netravati and Matsyagandha should be augmented to 24 coaches at least till May-2015. Similarly, the 12134/33 should be augmented at at least 21-22 coaches and the Jan Shatabdi to 15 coaches. One thing is for sure, the KR does not know how to run holiday specials. Here, the talk is about the Konkan Kanya getting delayed by 1 hour. The 00111 LTT-MAO gets delayed by 5-6 hours and the KR website shows it as running as per schedule. Therefore, the KR should concentrate more on increasing the capacity of the regular trains rather than fooling people in the name of holiday specials with unachievable train timings

I fail to understand, what @delay beyond Madgaon@ means. In real terms, all trains have been delayed. Ex. the 12134 is supposed to overtake both the 10112 nd 10004. Nothingof that sort has taken lace in the last 7 days. In fact, the 12134 trails the 12620 till Mumbai

    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.
