Re# 5224425-1              
Train Jayanti Janata is not yet restarted, even in its truncated route -- CAPE-PUNE. Looks like Mangala gobbled up all coaches allotted for Jayanti Janata. Hence the crowed fastest conversion of all 6 rakes to LHB.

Re# 5224425-2              
If railways has final goal of running only AC trains, they should stop production of non-AC coaches now. These coaches have a codal life of 25 yrs. They should concentrate on manufacturing AC3T and AC3T ECO coaches instead of LHB sleeper coaches. They should also develop ACC version of GR/Yuva coaches (ACGS/AC2S) and start manufacturing them. We already have some passenger trains (Not M/E/SFE) with only LHB GS/2S.

Immediate goal should be to run trains on GQ/GD at 130, plus as and when infra happens, 160 ready rakes should be available. So

start replacing SL with AC3E on likely routes. Once ACGS is developed and manufacturing starts, GS of those trains will be ACGS/AC2S.

    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...
