There's practically no difference between a passenger and a Shatabdi while travelling from MURI to ASN. Even 63597 is faster than 12020, what a shame! A big flop between RNC-DHN. 63597 most of the time has early arrival at ASN. While in return 63596 is faster than 12019, again a setback. The MEMU route is although faster and shorter by 46 km, there are lots of slacks and halts at every intermediate station. 63597 always gets brutally overtaken by several express trains between PRR-ASN, still manages to be on time. If slacks are reduced, trains will take max. 2hrs 30 mins to cover the distance.
What's the reason of paying such elite dynamic fare for travelling between MURI-ASN? Just for a little

Baat ye nehi hai.. I wanted to highlight the reason why 12020 doesn't get even decent passengers between RNC-DHN. Max .. loog passenger/MEMU train hi pakar lete haain rather than shatabdi.. Bypass line before GMO should be made to speed things up.

90% elite people Kolkata se Ranchi jane wale flight le lete hai.. Koon itna time taking train m jayenge wo bhi almost same fare m.. Dhanbad m hii pura train almost khali ho jata haain.. RNC se ASN jane wale passengers bohot ki kam hote haain jo sirf connecting train pakadne jate haain.. Many people prefer the diverted trains via ASN and passengers trains via PRR..
Haa baki jo loog Shatabdi m jane ka ekdom dhit haain, afford kar pate haain wo to jayenge hi..

    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.
