बिना पूर्व सूचना के रेलवे आज चलाएगा इंदौर-हावड़ा स्पेशल

The Western Railway announced a special train from Indore to Howrah, but it's unlikely to benefit many passengers due to a lack of information and poor scheduling. The train (09335) is scheduled to depart Indore at 10:30 PM on Thursday and arrive in Howrah at 6:00 AM on Saturday. The information...

appeared on IRCTC's website on Wednesday night, but booking wasn't open. Experts like Nagesh Namjoshi criticize the timing, suggesting it should operate on days when the Shipr Express isn't running. They also argue for at least 8-10 days' notice for special trains to allow passengers to book. The return journey from Howrah to Indore is scheduled to depart at 5:40 PM on Saturday and arrive at 12:50 AM on Monday/Tuesday. The train will follow the same route as the Shipr Express and will have a total of 23 coaches, including 15 sleeper coaches, 3 third AC, 1 second AC, 2 general coaches, and 2 SLR coaches.

Western Railway ne Indore se Howrah ke beech ek special train chalane ka decide toh kiya, but iska fayda zyada passengers ko nahi milega. Railways ne na toh is train ke chalne ki koi official information di hai, na hi train chalane ka din aur time sahi chuna hai. Train (09335)...

Thursday raat 10:30 PM pe Indore se chalke Saturday subah 6:00 AM pe Howrah pahuchegi. Thursday ko hi Indore-Howrah Shipr Express raat 11:30 pe Indore se chali jaane wali hai. Hairat ki baat yeh hai ki IRCTC website pe Wednesday raat ko special train toh dikh rahi thi, but uski booking shuru nahi hui thi. Railway ke expert Nagesh Namjoshi kahte hain ki aisi train ka kya fayda, jiski passengers ko na pehle se soochna ho, na din thik ho, na time. Iske bajay special train us din chalna chahiye, jis din Shipr Express nahi ho. Tab passengers isme zyada booking karwa paate. Railway ko kisi bhi special train ko chalane ke kam se kam 8-10 din pehle aam janta ko iski soochna dena chahiye, taki passengers usme booking karwa saken. Return journey Howrah se Indore Saturday sham 5:40 pe chali jaayegi aur Monday/Tuesday raat 12:50 pe Indore aayegi. Train Shipr Express ke route se hi chali jaayegi aur isme 23 coaches honge, jinme 15 sleeper coaches, 3 third AC, 1 second AC, 2 general coaches, aur 2 SLR coaches honge.

    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...
