No No.. don't feel sorry.. Some Railway Employees may really know, those who are directly involved with the Time Table or Coach maintenance related jobs.
But most employees I have experienced are not Rail Fans, they work only for the salary.
I have asked a general ticket for a SF train for PRR at CKP Counter on Sunday Evening, at that time only one SF was there on Sunday Evening that is MAS-ASN, the Counter person told, now there is no SF to PRR, then one old experienced employee from behind told her...
more... that yes today is Wednesday, there in MAS-ASN, please issue the ticket.
Some Running staff mostly Guard/Driver/TTE only knows about the route in which they travel they do not know the routes/RSA/CC of the trains that takes some branch line that crosses their home station. but managed by staff of some other station's staff.
There are more examples like this!!
New Employees in the Inquiry following the running status of the trains in their own system, showing the train have left ROU, she is unable to write the Expected time at CKP, asking Passengers how much time it takes from ROU to CKP!!! Where as passengers are checking Where is my train :)
