A Nice Evening Well Planned out in Advance by some Old and Familiar Faces of Kolkata residents IRI/IR Fans happened to happen on 29th July 2012 at 530pm at some place which rather being Singled out later to be "Indian Coffee House"- a place not only nostalgic in value but a remembrance of Golden oldies where few stalwarts of yesteryears like Famous Director Satyajit Ray,Manna Dey,Amartya Sen and some others has spent some Quality time present and future of lot of things.

PART-II RAC IN FC/1A COACHES.
B.Next we took up my question to him whether 1 additional passenger per LB is permitted to travel in FC/1AC during the day time. In other words a total of 6 passengers per cabin and 3 per coupe with the sitting passengers expected to DEBOARD or VACATE these coaches before 9 pm, to enable the reserved passengers to occupy their berths. According to Mr. Singh, such a practice was in vogue a long time ago but has since been dispensed with by IR.
