Lol there is no such thing as Congress and BJP all are part of the same coin !! Remember how 8 politicians jumped from Congress to BJP and this idiot Digambar said "God told me to join BJP for the welfare of the public". All are for money 💰💰 . "Potle gheun chala gharat !!"

---

Even I don't want to but this article mentioned about kamat jumping or changing statements during COVID and now. So I just wanted highlight how they play with the public. Even I want the best for the public with the double tracking issue so the both the parties are satisfied but these politicians just play both the sides and then later refrain about what they actually said they'll be doing. They should communicate both the ways so the best happens for the railways and people too. If people are protesting then they should make them understand what is it for !! Why is it for !! This is why Politicians are elected to speak on behalf of public and not to fill their pockets.

---

Well the news says it belonged to railways only because railways always procures more than what they need for future scenarios. So maybe some of the houses were made illegally and some will be given compensation. Also the house was already evacuated no loss of life that is great thing but work should be done properly and thoroughly as this is residential area extra precautions should be taken and advanced machinery should be used to detect all the big rocks or boulders so that they can excavate it properly.

While I was talking pictures one of the general passengers asking me is there another train that will reach Madgaon faster than this 😂😭, i was like don't worry it will reach Madgaon in 30 minutes your wait is over. Yep, one hell of a journey for passengers in hot summers waiting patiently for their destination to reach.

---

Ac coaches were at the end before General Coaches. Couldn't find much rush in any coach including general it was almost empty I think most of the them got down at Thivim and very few at Karmali when the chain was pulled. Maybe there isn't much rush from returning journey (07310) but it will be fully occupied for sure, however if you compare 12741 vs 07309 in both up and down journey for the occupancy part WL is more in 12741.

---

Wahi toh dekhna tha mujhe bhi 😂😂 ab almost 40 min se khadi hai agar 12741 ke baad bhejna hota toh 20 min mai chod dete, ab dusri train ko OT karwayenge !!

---

Isko halt deke chod bhi diya !!

---

Yes totally agree with you but people don't bother about it much somehow they want to reach their destination rather being uncomfortable not getting ticket in other trains. That's the harsh reality of special trains and this special train got LHB rakes I don't know what's s the loco link if it's a WAG-9, Puff 130 MPS gone down the drain then.

---

Koi nai Bhai ab le hi liya hai toh manage karlo bus dikkat yahi hai ki late hogi, baaki facilities ka nai pata mujhe bhi linen related, agar de diya toh thik jab special ke naam ke itna extra paise le rahe ho toh uski value bhi do na.

---

May be because of Crossings of 22150, 12432, 12133 and OT of 20112.

---

And for the terminating station (54 km part) heavy slack of almost 2 hours was also given but still managed to arrived late 😂😂.

---

Even I agree with that, Labour class or even other normal working class from UP or Bihar can easily afford AC berths not big of a issue. At least 4 SL could have been replaced with 4 3E or 3A. With almost 2 ½ days (54 hours) of journey and given the heat waves very difficult to travel in Sleeper too with such overcrowding.

---

High Time now to begin with the replacement of Sleeper coaches. It is creating nuisance and pathetic travelling experience for reserved ones as well as unreserved ones. Yep, Tatkal is also a not big deal for them, it's not about the price it's about safety and comfort rather than being treated like garbage in SL. If this train had H1 people would easily go even for that !!!

---

Yeah that's true only increase in frequency can ease off burden of over-crowding. Let's see if UBL division can provide VSG with such allotments to cater all of the trains you've mentioned. We've seen UBL Division stuck on same no. of trains from years and trains which were already there before Covid were called-off, so the least we expect them to increase AC coaches with Rake Standardization of 22 CC. If they really do give out Frequency increase of some trains it will be very graceful of them.

---

Yep, the special train is given very bad priority I don't know why maybe because of other normal daily trains and as well as special train from other zones too clashing on already overburdened lines might be the reason. However 12742 still given good priority commendable coverage of time by Patna-Vasco and now in KR Line almost on time. I don't see the possibility of 07310 reaching Vasco before 12 pm it will be heavily regulated for crossings or even OT in KR.

---

Even I was expecting that, Very gracious of KR for not making it 20+ hours late 😜.

---

Indeed pathetic service, better they shouldn't have run this crap. Understable holiday special train it will be late obviously people can handle max 6-7 hours delay more than that everyone gets frustrated. Poor Handling 🤔.
