11027/28 mumbai chennai mail mein bhi rms hai aur 11041/42 mumbai chennai express mein bhi rms hai. yah mail express aur train ka name se kuch nahi hota asli matlab sirf coaches aur engine hai aur speed. jis coaches ke trains ko jyada speed se loco chalayeja usko SF bolte hai aur avarage ya slow speed se chalayega usko mail exp bolte hai.

In earlier days,few trains used to have Mail Service,since Railways was a faster mode of travel and mails used to reach quickly. Now, most of the mails are sent y airplanes or through road transport. However,due to increasing demand, RMS Coaches of many mail trains have been discontinued and reserved coaches are attached. However few trains like 11027/28 still has RMS coaches. There is no basic difference now between a mail train and express train.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
