12988 - बारह नौ सौ अठासी , इसके नखरे हैं नवाबी ! - Keshav Saxena

and gotta give a big shoutout to ser for messing up 12129/30 for the past 2 weeks, this train running more than 12 hours behind schedule. secr already messing with this train, now ser adding to the torture for Azad Hind Express.

aur ser ko special dhanyavad bol aaj ke do hafton se bus aadha ghanta late chal rahi hai is train secr pehle hi is train ko pareshan kar raha hai aur ab ser azad hind express ko aur zyada pareshan kar raha hai

Man, things used to be pretty chill. When I've hopped on those SER trains [you know, between KGP-HWH], the locals and express ones like Ispat and Steel were kind of on time, with maybe a tiny delay of like 15-30 mins max, mostly after Santragachi. EMU trains were pretty spot on till SRC. Had no idea it's turned into a big mess now.

Back in the day, even on the DN side, trains were mostly on time unless some accident happened. I remember missing my next train at TATA once because there was this crazy accident on the route [some elephant got in the way].
