Hope you liked it.
Mai Poorva Express hu. Mai Eastern Railway rajya ki Rajkumari hu. Aaj mai aapsabko ko apne baare me batana chahti hu.
Meri shuruat 1950 me hui thi. Mai uss samay ki sabse dulari train thi, poori Deluxe

train, Air conditioned! aur mere dabbo ka bhoora rang tha. Mai apne rajya ke Capital yani Howrah se subah chalti thi aur Asansol, Patna, Mughalsarai hote hue DElhi ki taraf jati thi. Rasste me mujhe Allahabad ke paas ganga nadi ke upar se gujarne ka gaurav prapt hota tha. Log mujhe pul par rok kar ganga nadi me sikke phenkte the. Do mahine baad mere judwa behen ki shuruat hui. Usko Angrejo dwara banaya gaya "Grand Chord" yani Dhanbad-Gaya hokar bheja jata tha. Mai hafte me 4 din jati thi aur wo hafte me 3 din. Hum dono ka Howrah se nikalne ka samay ek hi tha lekin wo chhote raste se jakar Delhi jaldi pahuch jati thi. Fir hum logo me Sleeper aur General coaches jode gaye. 1969 me hamare rajya me raja ka aagman hua, yahi Howrah Rajdhani ka. Fir, 2000 me hamare rajye me maharani ki shuruaat hui, yani Sealdah Rajdhani. uske 1-2 saal baad me mujhe neele rang ke dabbe mil gaye the. Maharaj aur Maharani ke aate hi logo ke beech meri izzat kam hone lagi. Log unko zyada bhaav dete the. Lekin fir bhi mai middle class logo ke beech kafi priya thi. 2005 me meri behen Mughalsarai se Allahabad Varanasi hokar jane lagi. Mughalsarai to mujhse pehle pahuch jati thi lekin uss raaste par wo deisel engine se chalti hai isliye wo Allahabad aane me zyada samay lag jata tha. Isliye Fir Allahabad se hum dono ka ek hi samay milne laga Delhi tak ka. Samay ke saath baki dusre Rajdhanio ke fere badhte chale gaye. Pehle jin 3 samay me 6 rajdhanio ki niakala jata tha, ab wo sab apne apne samay par rozzana chalti hai! wo bhi ek baad ek! Upar se ab Kanpur shatabdi aur Duronto se bhi dushmani badhne lagi meri. 2013 me mujhe laal rang ke LHB dabbe bhi mile lekin meri speed nahi badhi. 2014 me speed badhakar waapus ghata diya gaya. Kanpur se Delhi pahuchte pahuchte agar mai raaste me 2 ghante bhi late ho jati hu to mujhe 1 ghante tak kisi bhi station par khada karke baki 5 rajdhani, shatabdi, duronto se overtake karwaya jata hai. Meri behen ka bhi yahi haal hai. Delhi se Howrah waapus lautne me aur bhi haalat kharab ho jati hai. waha to mujhe 4 rajdhani, 1 garibrath aur Sampoorna Kranti se overtake karwaya jata hai. Meri behen to ache Howrah pahuch jati hai lekin mujhe lautne me Mughalsari se Patna tak bahut dikkat hoti hai. Chain pulling se mai kafi pareshan hu. Kaash meri poorane ache din fir se laut aaye!!! Ab mai chalti hu apne yaatriyo ki dekhbhaal karne! Bye!!

I was also thinking the same, but as per our IRI, it says Patna train came in 1950, while Gaya train came in 1951

Sir, there appears to be a mistake.
Poorva was first introduced via the GC.
And all the Dli-Hwh rail lines were constructed by the "Angrez", and not just the GC.

    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...
