Very happy to see that the forum is now again filled up with travelogues and shared railfaning experiences. It is a breath of fresh air to see that the IRI forum not being reduced to a platform for meaningless bickering and particularly a forum for complaining and disrespecting an entire region because a train got extended from your hometown, even if the train is a crawler and wasn't yours in the first place, it got extended from Varanasi !
We are ferroequinologists! Let's continue to enjoy those iron machines that are quite frankly indispensible to the modern style of life.

while it is indeed very flattering to receive credit and inspiring so many of the present members to start sharing their railfanning and travel experiences, IRI has always been a platform where such write ups were commom. It is not a new trend rather an old and elegant character that I tried reminiscing while jotting my horrid experience while being on board the Ratna Superfast Express.
Credits to older members like PKV sir, Soumitra Sir and Zahwaib for inspiring me in my early years on this site.
Keep sharing your experiences guys, been loving everyone of them whether it was Kumund's vivid and clearly recollected travelogue, or Piyush's recollection of the journey that took a surprising twist, or Saurabh sir's insight into the circa 2003 when he was an hopeful IIT aspirant, or even Gagan's concise yet perfectly visual recollection...
Disclaimer :- Tagging the aforementioned train and station was fully coincidental and had no objective to offend any particular railway community and shouldn't be interpreted as such....
Signing off guys...

Chor do yaar ab Farakka Exp ki baatein. You are looking like an insolable guy who can't move on after break up. You are getting targeted because you have been totally off putting this forum with so many post of people having hatred of MLDT, Farakka Exp unfair extension falana dhimkana. Don't react and move on to something else, Gour Express pe focus laga do. Isi cycle me fanse rahoge to OCD ho jayega. Koi kharab intention se nahi bol raha hoon mai, mental health is very important aur ye sab cheezon pe mental health kharab karke kya hi fayda hoga.

It's a crawler, which keeps getting slowed down every year. Everyone who travels, knows the 'prestige' of that train in the eyes of travelers. I don't need to insult an inanimate object.

Okay, I'll tell you the exact day when all of the country's trolls were spewing venom against Varanasi. 04/06/2024. I don't think I need to tell you the reason. So what, did it do anything to my city.

You're talking about defamation, and that's the only reason I'm calling you out on your own misadventures. The particular train and station were tagged only because they were treated as the center of universe on this forum since last 7-8 months.

And you're asking, 'log tumhare peechhe kyo pde hain', well, no one else got offended and threatened to remove the tags. You got your answer. You do you.

Mera kya hai, I'll say a few harsh words to you, give a few suggestions and move on with my life. That's literally my job, I handle hundreds of patients daily. Tum fase reh jaaoge, Farakka aur Malda ko 'defend' karne me. IRI, Twitter, Instagram. Kuchh milna nahi hai, khud Malda wale tumko 'defend' karne nahi ayenge.

Agree:Ok
Let us all bring this matter to a silence now with mutual understanding. There is no need to increase the matter much; even no one should be bothered enough as there is no scope of interfering in Railway Board policies and decisions. We all have our lives, we should make efforts to make that life fruitful as today builds tomorrow. If we sow the seed of happiness and togetherness, we will reap the same fruits. Better halt this all and proceed with our interests on railways and railfanning.

Travel SAFE

1. RailFanning does NOT MEAN dangerous pics/videos.
2. Doorplating pics/youtube videos are strictly FORBIDDEN in IRI.
3. Take plenty of food pics and other safe pics.
4. Write human interest narratives to make the pics interesting.
5. Enjoy blogging and travelling SAFELY.

REMEMBER: YOUR LIFE is the most precious thing, NOT RailFanning.

    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...
