Sir what will the U/R passengers do when there are only 6 U/R coaches in Brindavan Exp,that too at least 800/900 people are fighting for the seats there from the Originating Pt itself.& Adding to the Public's woe,(I will give specific eg for12639),when this train is placed at MAS around 06.40 hrs,u enter the U/R coaches,u'll find that above every seat there are handkerchiefs.So like a Vagabond,you're searching for seat & suddenly 1 guy comes & says to you,pay me Rs 30,this WIndow seat will be urs.At least this happened to me on 6th Nov while boarding 12639 from MAS.In Night trains,like Bangalore Mail,they charge you aroundRs 50 for a Window Seat.
Train No. 2609 / 10 has more number of UR coaches than R, yet UR come and occupy R coaches.
Now its Rs.50/- in Bangalore mail. I remember i had paid Rs.20/- when i had to come to SBC from MAS due to some urgency and was not able to get a reserved ticket. The problem lies in the point that IR is least bothered about increasing UR coaches as they yield less income and inturn reserved coaches yield income in all forms (like general, tatkal and all) and also load will be less (around 70-80 people in a coach) where as there is no limit in number of passengers for unreserved coaches.
I saw this once @ SBC by train 2658, i rche stn early and I was wondering from starting to end of d stn, and noticed a person approached a railway men and asked for a seat in UR for train no. 2658, he asked Rs.50.00 to give seat in UR, the person agreed an he, railwaymen took him along with him near d yard where 2658 was waiting in LOOP line @ yard to come to PF No. 1.. Unfortunately this train has only 1.5 UR. What is d point in issuing countless UR tkts by railways
