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...

No. It needs to be tagged. I've endured this train more on this forum, especially by your blogs, rather than in real life. In reality it was so horribly late that I chose a UPSRTC over it.

I've tried reasoning with you. Even hoped that your undue ego will go away with the new ID, but old habits die hard. Rather I think we should mention Balurghat-Bathinda Express, owned by NFR, extended from Malda Town.

Great Great Useful
So finally NFR understood their mistake for extending Farakka Express from Malda.

Compensating it , they are running Guwahati Anand Vihar Spl via Gaya

NFR should do a favour and write Bathinda Malda Town Balurghat on TBs.

14027.28 is a good train, especially for rural passengers of JIND, HISAR, FATEHABAD, MANSA, BATHINDA and FIROZPUR districts.

12422, 12440, 12486 & 22942 [5 days in week] are good option to travel for Delhi, by making interchange either at JHL or at JIND.
Also, 22480 & 22486 can be used for travelling to Delhi.

This train [14027/28] in both directions shall be given stoppage at UCA - Uchana, which is a town in JIND district, without disturbing its existing time table, so that it can gain more passengers and be beneficial for Uchana town and nearby villages. Also, it can be easily speeded up by at least 20 minutes end to end in both directions.

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...
