Most probably the first Click of the Third Rajdhani for Mumbai.
Date:- 24/12/13.
Ready to depart from New Delhi Platform no.1
Seems Mumbai is in need for full AC trains so much? Her step-sister LTT NZM AC Exp was started recently, still this twin sister of BCT Raj is started now... then TVC Rajdhani is given Surat halt now.
The

demand and priority for Rajdhani trains.. results in less priority given to other trains like Duronto and SF. While Duronto timetable was out, many railfans were disappointed as it was much slower than Rajdhani as well as GR. Reason given was no other train can be given such aggressive timings like BCT Raj as the route is jam packed and now we get to see timings were possible in the form of this train
Ofcourse, trains on WR route run ontime but with lots of slack.. if sleeper trains are also taken care of and given priority then this slack would be avoided and It would really help to solve problems of huge waiting list, unwanted situations in sleeper trains.. In short I meant there should be a Rajdhani type Sleeper train too, with travel time of 17 hours.

yeah.. i said for this as there is HWH NDLS Sleeper DRNT which runs exactly with same run time as HWH Raj.
But unfortunately Drnt are not possible now...
so, when now there 160 kmph mps Sleeper coaches.. there should be such sleeper train with 12909/12910 GR timings

    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...
