Bihar Sampark Kranti - ECR Don ka ticket Confirm hona mushkil hi nahi, namumkin hai. - Somanko

We all know trains are still running with 25 year old timetable even after doubling of the tracks.Problem lies with the time management.What we need is a dedicated group of people who can sit together with a vision to reduce the running time and revise TT acoordingly.At present SR will never do that because touching time table of one train will make cascading effect on the other trains.SR will never take that headache unless there is a strict instruction from ministry.Till then they will continue to waste public time and keep on saying "NO" to new trains.Other wise also they can reduce unnecessary slack time between stations,for example the distance between TCR and SRR is hardly 30 KM with line doubled, all north bound trains are given 1 hour running time,even Rajadhani also not exempted from this, just because there is a division change.same is the case between Kasargod and Mangalore...

stations.12617 Mangala express distance between Feroke and CLT is 8 KM but running time 36 min.Again 12618 Mangala from Pattabi to SRR distance is 11 KM but train will take 1 hr to pass this distance.So much wastage of time.There are some of the examples for mockery of time management.Slack time is OK, if it is a single line.But for train with a dedicated double line ahead, what to tell.Moreover SR shall adopt and implement a strict policy that SF trains shall have minimum 30 KM distance between adjacent stops.Unless SR give away "frog in the well "attitude and bring professionalism in the management,we the travellers will continue to suffer.
