[Resolved]  Southern Railways — Suggestion

Kindly increase the service towards Thiruvottiyur as after 18.55 train there is train only at 7.35 (that too starts late).If there is train around 19.15 it would be convenient for the North Madras passengers.If we miss the 18.55 train then we have to wait for 40 minutes which is horriblae.Kindly please run train at 19.15 hrs.

Today, Indore express from Trivandrum to Indore stopped for 40 minutes at Cheppad Rly Station and continue journey after allowing two trains to pass to & fro. We people are also travelling to reach our destination on time. So please avoid this type of cheating of passengers.

Southern Railways (Chennai Central) — miss behaviour of railways booking employee

At the chennai central railways station being such a big major station it has only 1(one) enquiry counter.
And if asked for enquiry at other counters the booking employees miss behaves everytime.
Hence enquiry counter must be increased.
And behaviour of the employee should be the improved.

yes it's quite true and it should be sorted out soon.

Today (22/09/2009) I travelled from Kayamkulam to Ernakulam via Aleppey by Repthisagar Super Fast Express. This train halted at Cheppad Railway Station for more than 40 minutes and continue journey only after passing two trains viz Janasatabdi & Intercity to both direction. This is a true harrasment towards the passengers who are travelling by paying superfast charge and we cant reach our destination on time. So please post much more efficient officials in the controlling section and avoid this type of time loss to the bonafide passengers.

Respected Sir,

Sub:- Tatkal sewa journey - Kovai Express - Chennai to Coimbatore
Ref:- PNR[protected] / 7.11.2009 A/C

I would like to submit my grievance with regards to WL in Tatkal. I bought 2 tickets on 5.11.2009 to travel in kovai Express to coimbatore to see my daughter who is studying in Engineering College was sick. The wait list number was 8 & 9 . As the wait list number was not confirmed till 2200 hrs on 6th night and hence, we thought of cancelling to travel due to the instruction on the reverse side of railway ticket mentioning as " WL-WAIT LIST DO NOT BOARD ANY RESERVED COACH if WL STATUS IS NOT UPDATED TO RAC OR CONFIRMED"

As my wife also hesistate to travel in WL due to embarrasement in the train to other passengers as well as to the TTE.

To day morning (7.11.2009), I went to cancell the ticket at Airport Counter, I was shocked to hear that I will not get any money in this ticket. I could not understand the logic behind. I bought the ticket for Rs 1180/- whereas while cancelling no money will be given.

At least I would have informed through SMS about the status of ticket whether confirmed or not. In such a case I would have planned to keep my luggage ready. Till 6th night I was trying in 139 where I got WL 7 & 8. In this condition how can I travel?

Therefore, due to not communicating to the passenger on time, my I request you to kindly instruct Railway Officials to return my hard earned money to me. I know you are very much busy with pre-occupied assigned duties ; inspite I have no other option to communicate to you.

Details of TICKET is as shown below:

PNR ..[protected]
Train .. Kovai Express No. 2675
Date .. 7.11.2009
Fare .. Rs. 1180/-
No. of Pax .. 2
WL No. .. 8 & 9

Hope to get back my money.

Southern Railways — Abuse

i was travelling with my Mom and Sister in train no:6348 Mangalore- Trivandrum exp: on 15th of NOV 09. We had reserved a Sleeper Class Ticket and we were on the RAC list 5, 6, 7 respectively due to the rush of sabarimala pilgrims they provided an Extra coach(EX1) and we had confirmed seats 65, 66, 68. The coach was just behind the engine and they was a whole lot of rush inside our sleeper compartment and there was a stage that i had to beg to general compartment passenger to occupy our seat. With a lot of wispering they moved out and kept standing next to our seats making us uncomfortable there was not even a TTR to check the ticket nor a police for our safety. I was just doomed in that situation with my Mom and Sis and cruel and fierce looks given by the general compartment passenger. Do we reverse tickets for an uncomfortable journey like this or is it our mistake that we traveled in that train.

Mohan Ramasamy,
You are right in your pespective regarding railway employees.
They are arrogant to general public. behaves like they are from elite class or public is all miscreants.
If you does not address a clark with "Sir" or "Madam", their attitude is not going to be good. In chennai it is even worst. Collective bargaining, monopoly, trade unionism and post colonial attitude make this happen. Can you imagine a staff giving tickets at park town subarban station (time 20:45 on 18 nov 2009)scolding me with fish market slang-mair, punde etc? just because i asked him not to advise but take money and issue ticket as am not interrested in an argument on a minor issue of placing coins? There should be more transparency, and better peole should com in government jobs, and strict actions should be taken against. These employeed are worst extensions of their political masters. with our money they exploits ourselves.
BSNL is one organization that has changed...they behave properly now. thanksto privatisation.

the era of british raj is gone but our black masters mindsets have not yet changed.
they are barbarians. this is a social evil. if railway does not act upon this they will not survive and the gae of glory will be all just memory with privatisation happened.

hi

i went to tiruthani today by sapthagiri express.

i dont think any products sold in that train is as per M.R.P.

they are doing a criminal offence.

as per rules they have to pay their fine in crores. for each and every product sold to all customers

the pantry care staff does not seem to care about that.

either u buy or not. they keep price above M.R.P and sell. nobody to question them.

i think there is a conspiracy there.

may be u have to check there.

will you do it. GOD ONLY KNOWS.

bye.

Southern Railways — no proper seating

very frequent visitor in day trains to chennai.the reservedcompartment is full od open ticket holders.
the tt is blind folded and deaf ear to our requests.


The TT shlould be strictly instructed to send all the open ticket holders to go over to unreserved coaches
and ensure basic free movement for reserved coach travellers

Actually raliway dept knows the general coach is full then also they issuing the tickets and people enter into sleeper class... best place.
Last night I was traveling by Devgiri Express.. CTS to Aurangabad, and I hold reservation ticket then also other people slept on my brith, when I reached to TT, he said due to Maha - parivatan din huge crowd and sleeper class is fully loaded and reservation berth are occupied by the other people. please adjust. (WHY TO ADJUST FOR ADJUSTMENT WE TAKEN THE RESERVATION TICKET ?????)
I thought to give a complain to station master but train is stopping for a 2-3 min on each station is very diffcult to lauch a complain.
Respected Sir...
1. First please remove the sleeper class reversation as no signifacne is remained.
2. why only sleeper class required to adjust.
3. Is it fine sleeper class people enter in the A.C class and try to rush there. (in that case ask the AC passengers to adjust)

This well known fact that sleeper class is lost significance, and Railway dept is behaving like a blind & deaf ear to our requests.

I sure no one railway offical will read this, if read also then no reaction...
Keep it UP
Cheers !!!
