Visakhapatnam Kirandul express Left Visakhapatnam at 745 and reached Araku at 1150 1hr late dep and 1hr late arrival. Yesterday they are only 2 opp freight crossing in single line section. The train is late by an hour from Visakhapatnam in last 3 days and is a common scene. A fellow traveller in bus on retirn said that once on Sunday train left 1000 and arrived at 1630 Araku no water and food and the whole day is wasted for the tourists with no return option on that day or sightseeing. In retirn the train arrives Vskp 1-2 hrs on a daily basis. The late running is due to preference of dep and arrival of express trains on Vskp Platforms.

Great Great Useful
Visited Charlapalli station, The station is equal to Secunderabad station.
The station is expected to be inaugurated between Aug 15 to Aug 30. We can expect mostly on Aug 15 if delays it might go till Aug 30.
Inauguration by Honorable PM Narendra Modi.
99% of the work is done

The major negative point is the station being far from the city

Agree
In my opinion railways should make future train sets with this coach composition 6 general class coaches including luggage loading capacity , 6 sleeper coaches , 8 ac class coaches ( which can include third ac or second ac or first ac or can be a mixture of these coaches ) and ( either 1 ac coach or 2 ac coaches can be removed to add pantry car coach and extra luggage coach ) so 6+6+8 total 20 and 2 electric locos ( 1 at front side of whole trainset and 1 at back side of the whole trainset ) so 20 +2 total 22 coaches , so that instead of giving lhb rakes to some trains which runs on a longer path railways should directly convert those mail or express or superfast express trains into these trains sets and cost of making lhb coaches will also be reduced due...

to directly conversion of mail or express train into train sets and rake reversal time of many trains will be reduced cost of doing rake reversal of a train will also be reduced ( due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) and speed of all trains can be increased (due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) . Please give your opinion on this but please don't give any argument related to politics so that i can save my post from getting archived.

Why is WAT division is running 3E instead of ACC? Are not they looting the money from passengers in the name 3E for day time train?
