DRM Howrah Ensured us full access to ELS and Liluah Coach Depot for Decorations and we did the same. AEM/Liluah Coaching Depot supported us a lot and he was backbone of the whole thing and he did managed to have such awesome designing over the rake and the coaches were all 2015-14 Made and were shining and all kinds of Balloons,Garlands,LED Lights were Provided,in Short I have not seen such effort by any organisation to make sure that 5-6 Guys who are not at all Related to Railways are Happy.
-----
For our Comfort WAP 7 30328 was alloted 24 Hrs before today's journey and every possible help was ensured by Railways.WAP 7 30328 From Howrah was Decorated and Maked Up like a Bride by Eastern Railway's Designated Fans Me, Chandril Bhowmick Ghulam Irshad Khan Subhajit Sadhukhan Sourav Dutta Koustab Sammadar Pritam Das Biswajit Lucius Kumar Arajit Gharai Ankan Sarkar Gourab Bhattacharjee Samannay Chatterjee Sourav Das !! It Was on occasion of 12311 Kalka Mail's 150th Anniversary.We were Duly Felicitated by ER Gm Mr RK Gupta and DRM Howarh Mr Badri Narayan during the main event today.
----
During the Function on PF 9 GM ER Mr RK Gupta Felicitated us and thanked us for our support and interest and he also tweeted about it. Every Official Like DRM,DCM,Asked us " Are You Guys Happy ?" and We were like on the 7th sky because of the fact that just for the sake of us ER did managed to hold an awesome function which was not at all expected by us.
----
Checkout the Picture for tremendous effort by Eastern Railways Cleaning staff. They even literally picked of little sticky materials from the floor with knifes and Pantry Staffs weer looking like they were of some 5 Star Hotel and ER also arranged a Graphic Designed Cake to celebrate it with us .
----
This Function was aired on ABP Ananda,24 Ghanta,RPlus,DD News TV News Channels. In the Pictures there are ER's DRM/GM Talking to Reporters and Posing with Loco decorated by us and Flagging off the train !! :)
----
This is the best possible occurrence that an Rail Fan can feel in his whole life ! I will Cherish it for a long log time. :)

Blog Entry Unlocked.
This blog has already been unlocked several times, and all Objections overturned, but new Objections keep reappearing, and the blog keeps getting RELOCKED.
.
Although it is a joyous occasion, even I am not able to fight a veritable TIDE of public opinion and resentment. And yes, this is a zonal celebration and IRI is not a part of it. While

on the face of it, it is a celebratory blog, there seem to be deeper issues among members transplanted from FB, WhatsApp and other social media.
.
@all:
Please understand that we live in a human, social world, and opinions and objections are not 100% objective. Emotions will ALWAYS be a part of who we are. And there WILL be some subjectivity to our opinions.
.
It is not possible for me to referee long-standing rivaries among members in OTHER social media like FB, Twitter, etc.
.
The best recourse is for members to be courteous and diplomatic in their interactions with others, not ONLY in IRI, but ALSO in FB and other platforms where there is NO moderation (or loose moderation at best). IRI cannot moderate discussions everywhere on the internet. Bad interactions elsewhere may easily spill over into IRI. For example, Member A may be abusive and disrespectful towards Member B in WhatsApp. Member B may thereafter look for ways to flag Objections against Member A in IRI. This is human nature.
.
All are requested to exercise a mixture of RESPECT, restraint, intelligence and courtesy in their interactions, and you will find that it is much easier to get by here. And of course, you will not get Objections!!! That is the only solution.

Thank you sir,
But i want to told you something that was actually happened
Your line- "All are requested to exercise a mixture of RESPECT, restraint, intelligence and courtesy in their interactions,"
We have already tried it, when i look that comment, i tried to make balance and told him to please clarify that your intention was not to hurt IRI, but reward

i got words like "IRI ne hamesha mujhe nicha dikhaya he, me kyo du IRI ko credit, isme sabhi ER ke fans hi the"
Thanx sir, this is a joyous occasion and its really sad that such blog get archived but more sad is blogger behavior.
I will take back my objection if he still take back the statement- "IRI me hamesha mujhko nicha dikhaya gaya he"
