Kudos @SCoRAILWAYVSKP @SCRailwayIndia for not cancelling the trip mid-way thus avoiding the stranding of 1000s of passengers amidst a severe cyclone & for taking care of them well by providing food and ensuring their safer arrival upto Chennai🙏👏👏
After 27 hours of journey from Hyderabad Deccan, 12760 Charminar Express has finally arrived at Chennai Beach 🫡 15 hours of delay 🙃

People need to understand the significance of trains before commenting about. Jan Shatabdi trains are above superfast trains, be it in terms of fare or priority. It's basically A Shatabdi for Common people so to have fast connectivity while providing a Affordable price.

Indian Railways just downgraded some 30+ pairs of Superfast trains including Jan Shatabdis (both JS in Kerala), Garib Raths and premier trains like Goa Express, Karmabhoomi, Black Diamond, Himagiri etc to ordinary express because their avg speeds fell below 55 kph. Says a lot.
Agreed, and its terrible that in 2026 all of Indian Railways still needs to get its average speed up from 50kmph. But why 320kmph? Why isn't 200-250kmph enough? If its not enough, why not go for 500kmph?

India - How some trains are still cleaned. Trash from the coach is thrown directly onto the tracks while the train is moving.

Another Loss of a Premium train...
सहरसा अमृतसर गरीब रथ का छिन गया सुपरफास्ट दर्जा 📍 रेलवे को फास्ट करने से ज्यादा डाउनग्रेड करना आसान लगा 📍 सहरसा - खगड़िया, बेगूसराय - बरौनी, दलसिंह सराय और बरौनी के बीच 40 से कम की है स्पीड

Nice to see IR still remembers Nostalgic ICF Blue 💙
A more comfortable ride is on its way! 🚆 The Howrah–Katihar Express is getting LHB coaches, bringing passengers a safer, smoother journey in both directions. #EasternRailway #LHBUpgrade

Just we saw... Garibrath and Janshatabdi trains were Degraded to Express from Superfast. Guess? These trains are classified as "Premium trains" that has similar priority to Duronto , Rajdhani and now, Reduced to Mail/Express. From the Purpose, Livery everything is gone!
Absolutely No. Railways has improved a lot while comparing to Decade old era. The best Era was 2017-22 trains Remained punctual, Categories remained as it is, Purpose of the trains was considered, Stoppages were rationalising Thanks to Suresh Prabhu ji and Piyush Goyal ji🙏🏻

Express --> Superfast is termed an upgradation Superfast --> Express is termed as "Change in Train numbers" It's A Degradation!!!! This isn't a forum to play with words, Railways, first of all, should learn to be honest.
Eight Express trains are set to be upgraded as Superfast Express services, with revised train numbers and enhanced speeds, effective from 1st January 2027.🚆 #SouthernRailway #IndianRailways #SuperfastExpress #Travel #Journey

🚨 3AC is the new General! What’s the point of booking an AC 3-tier ticket 60 days in advance and expecting a comfortable journey, only to end up travelling with unreserved passengers overcrowding the coach? Indian Railways, who is responsible for this chaos? 14006 Anand Vihar Sitamarhi Lichchavi Express. #IndianRailways

Effect of Voicing out 🙌🏻 See! The regular trains could still be operated properly without involving in ruckus, in tht case, the slacks could even be reduced. Rlys themselves fix priority leading to bad controlling, adding up slacks. Controlling must be Efficiency focused.
Hats off to this Railmadad complaint 🔥🔥 03435 given precedence & is now heading towards SFG while all premium train didn't overtook it unlike last few runs. Thanks to ECR , now due to slack in NCR it will reach Ghaziabad before time even after 10-15 overtakes.

Credit where it's due! From 33% to 99% railway electrification in just 12 years. That's genuinely impressive. And it's not just electrification. Indian Railways has seen a massive transformation in infrastructure, new trains, station redevelopment, cleanliness and overall passenger facilities. Look at Delhi alone: four major railway stations are undergoing redevelopment, alongside projects like Gurugram station redevelopment, RRTS and the bullet train. The next decade could be a massive turning point for Indian Railways. As these projects are completed and the results become visible on the ground, the scale of transformation could be extraordinary.
🇮🇳 Indian Railways Electrification Progress: 2026: 99.6% 2025: 99.4% 2024: 90.8% 2023: 84.7% 2022: 76.1% 2021: 67.2% 2020: 58.7% 2019: 50.9% 2018: 43.7% 2017: 37.9% 2016: 35.6% 2015: 33.9% 2014: 33.0% 2011: 29.6% 2001: 23.6% 1991: 16.0% 1981: 8.7% 1971: 7.6% 1961: 1.3% 1950: 0.7%

The fact is that only 7% of Indian trains are modern or high-speed trains like this (including metro trains, shatabdi express, etc). Services on existing traditional train sets have also improved. In 2010, only 15% of Indian trains were electrified. Today the figure is 99.7%. There were only 500 km of expressways in 2010; today the number is 9,000 km. There were only 71,000 km of national highways in 2010; today the number is 146,000 km. Soon all the traditional, stereotypical Indian trains will be replaced with modern trains. I wonder how the racists will earn X dollars then? How will they feed their families? 😭 What poverty porn will they target? Except for lies, obviously.
People get excited for metro meanwhile I am waiting the time when RRTS becomes new normal. Imagine living 50 km away from city and reach city center within 30 minutes without any honk or traffic with an affordable fare.

Now, add 30 minutes to this.
Before boarding a Vande Bharat Train, Passengers Should Undergo at least 30 Minutes of Civic Sense Training. 🙏
