stations ahead of time. No halts at intermediate stations or on outer signals. You can feel the speed between 110-120 KMPH.

Cleaning: 5/5 for interior cleaning. The housekeeping team was frequently cleaning the coach every 1.5 hours, but Zero for the exterior surface. Every coach was completely covered in dust and gutka stains, including the windows.

Rush: The seats were occupied only by reserved passengers. No waitlisted passengers were present. In fact, no one was standing in the general coaches either.

Friendly Overtakes:
11038 (with WAG9) got Overtaken at Kareli by 12150
then 12150 got overtaken at Ahmednagar by 11038
then 11038 got Overtaken at Hadapsar by 12150

CLEANLINESS IN RAILWAYS: A JOINT RESPONSIBILITY
=============================================

The easiest game humans can play is "BLAME GAME" and the most difficult job for mankind is to take responsibility of mistakes committed by them.

Yes,

I am writing this post just to share my views from past few experiences as to how casual and careless humans can be, to promote unhygienic environment in railways.

Washroom/Wash basin:
Washroom and Washbasin usages are so frequent and this is something one cannot challenge or question. However, when one uses it for his/her own turn, it must also be kept in mind that many more dozens of people are also in turn to use the same. And no one definitely has a right to use railway resources as use and throw resources.

Dumping Food Wrappers or foils under the berths:
This is just not acceptable. Enjoy your food and let others "enjoy the trash". People must be sensible enough to these issues at least.

Bed Linens : Used as a wiping cloth towards end of the journey. Really shameful.

Cigarette/Bidi butts: thrown into commodes/pans or washbasins, leave alone the fact SMOKING IS PROHIBITED IN RAILWAYS

I would also add that if passengers continue to do this, railway housekeeping/ cleaning staff would also be discouraged to discharge their duties with devotion. Already at times they do not feel like doing their work properly, and such behavioural patterns of passengers adds to the problems.

That is why, I wrote that CLEANLINESS IS A JOINT RESPONSIBILITY and STAKE OF PASSENGERS IN THIS IS MORE THAN railways.

I hope my post is read by all.
Thanks

Travelled in this train two months ago from Rangapara to New Delhi. I can say this is the worst Rajdhani in terms of cleaning and food. toilet were stinking from Rangiya itself. Food is worst. only punctuality is plus point that too due to a SF type avg speed end to end.

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...
