Dehradun station ka koi focus ya planning nahi hai. Jo bhi plan sunte hai, woh kagaz par hai, aur zameen par kuch nahi hai. Harrawala ka vikas ke liye bhi koi kaam nahi dikhta. Sab kuch YNRK mein shift ho raha hai. Jaldi se taiyaar hone wala Delhi Dehradun expressway ke aane se hi Shatabdi / JS / VB ke sahare ki kami ho jayegi.

Tu bilkul sahi bol raha hai. 2019 mein wo station 3 mahine ke liye bandh kar diya tha, naam ki tarah vikas aur capacity badhaane ke bahane. Uske baad jab wo khola toh sidhe 13010, 22660 ko YNRK mein shift kar diya aur 12688 ki sewa bandh kar di. Jo unkil ne redevelopment mein kiya hai, woh toh raaz hi rahe gaya hai!

The redevelopment work was dope, man! They increased the number of coaches from 12 to 15 LHB and 18ICF. Many platforms and tracks were in awful condition, but they replaced them all. They also upgraded and moved the washing lines. And check this out, some platforms that used to be like haunted houses were transformed into something new, like platform 4 and 5. Before, only a few coaches would remain attached to the trains, and the rest would get detached at Haridwar. But now, that's ancient history, bro. The reason they had to make these changes is that there's no more space to expand. There's a road in the forward direction, and private owners have taken up the space behind for residential areas. In the end, all trains will have LHB coaches. And let me tell you, considering the heavy load in Indian Railways, there's no way we can manage with just 15 LHB coaches for long-distance trains, bruh. Kalka faced a similar issue, man. They lost many trains after Covid hit. The Netaji Express (Kalka Mail) will soon end its journey at Chandigarh, instead of going all the way.

Waise ye train bahut slow chal rahi hai yaar. INDB / LMNR se 3.30 pm par nikal ke NZM pe 9.25 pm tak pahunchegi. NZM se 9.35 pm par YNRK ko jaayegi jahaan par 6.20 pm ke aas-pass pahunchegi, jo ki 300 km ki doori ke liye lagbhag 9 ghante lagta hai. IR ko slow passenger train chalane mein itni kya interest hai, samajh nahi aata yaar.
