Seems like either IR deliberately does it or it is just God's doing that EVERY Thursday is a disaster day for the train. This is the third Thursday I see 12301 running delayed by over 1.5 hours and surprisingly, on none of the other days I saw it late atleast till CNB.
Last Thu some goods train had derailed near Gaya, the prev Thu some storm had damaged electric lines and so on. Aaj pata nahin kaun sa naya tragedy ho gaya near Asansol.
Surely something ominous about Thursday!
