RailFans don't miss their train. Why? Because they go to the station HOURS before the actual departure of their Train - to watch OTHER trains depart. - Prince Maan

In the process of LHB-fication a trend can be seen. That said, if a train has more than one rakes (Ex: Gitanjali Express has 4 rakes), then many times only one rake gets LHB first and other rake(s) continue(s) for months before being converted to LHB. In this constraint do you think that a train should be LHB-fied only when there are enough coaches available to convert all of it's rakes at the same time?
**Below are the potential issues of part LHB-fication I can think of-
1)

Injustice to those passengers who are paying same fare for same service, but not getting the comfort and safety of LHB.
2) Operational problem for IR where they have to keep two types of booking option for same train based on the rake style (ICF/LHB).
If you have any other point to share, kindly comment.
**Tagging trains affected by part LHB fication.

Do you think Vande Bharat (T18) is overpriced?
** As per the news paper report the End-to-end fare structure is as follows:
CC: Rs 1760/- (Almost Rs 200/- more than Shivganga 2A and Rs 650/- more than Shivganga 3A)
EC:

Do you think a Trash Bin should be provided in each and every coupe of a train coach?
**Currently they are located only at both sides of coaches- below wash basins.

Should Saraighat Express have RSA with some other train for better maintenance and punctuality?
** UP train reaches GHY at 10:05 and the return starts at 12:30. So it gets very less time for maintenance at GHY.

12311 Up Kalka Mail gets a considerable number of coaches cut at CDG because of maintenance reason (short pitline at Kalka). Those coaches rest at CDG for the whole day (around 22Hrs as per TT) and gets attached to 12312 Down Kalka Mail. Now instead of keeping those coaches idle for such a long time, should IR consider to utilize them? For example, a Kalka Mail slip in between CDG- ASR or CDG- JAT? This will help to establish a new connectivity. What do you think?
