Southern Railway Complaints & Reviews

I am a scientist working in isro sriharikota. I am daily travelling from ponneri to sullurpeta by emu. Last year november sr reschedule the train no 42416 which is starting from sullurpeta at 1810 hrs from 1815 hrs. This creates lot of inconvenience to commuters those who are travelling by this train as we can reach the station by 1815 hrs. The other train which is coming from nellore (66036) is always coming very late. You can check the data's available. Hence pl kindly change the starting time of the train to 1815 or even later. There are near about 50 commuters are working in isro are suffering due to this time change. Your urgent necessary action required in this matter

Dear sir,

There is no direct train between chennai to tiruvanamalai, all passengers are travel through only bus. Bus ticket very costlier than train ticket. I requested southern railway to arrange special train between chennai central and tiruvanamalai atleast every pournami festival. Lak of perople travelld through bus only.
Best train time is for thiruvanamalai is

Chennai central 2.30 pm arrival 6. Pm at tiruvanamalai
Chennai central 5.30pm arrival 9.30pm at tiruvanamamalai,

Return direction

Thiruvanamalai 9 pm chennai arrival at 12.30am

I am a regular ist class season ticket holder travelling from st thomas mount to egmore. Of late i find lots of tn police constables & trainee constables in first class. They stand on the footboard with their backpack causing lot of problems those who board. Even if tc comes they never ask them tickets. Are these people eligible for free ride that too in first class..? If no will action be taken..??? We season ticket holders pay nearly thrice that of ordinary season ticket and this is the treatment...!!!

Chennai alleppey second compartment seats were blocked by some local people and the passengers including me when refused to pay them for the seats already we took tickets for, they were using abusive language and even harmed some people here. They were also so drunk.
Please take this as a serious problem because passengers with ladies also suffered from these drunk violent people.

In east tambaram railway station two wheeler parking the vehicles are getting damaged frequently and they are collecting heavy parking charges as well without following proper timelines. They are also not giving proper response to customers for vehicle damage issue which was created by them only. They are just dragging and hitting the two wheeler with other two wheeler to get more space for other vehicles without considering the vehicle damage issue.

My account has been debited 2 times on 25.12.2017for rs.395/- towards ticket reserved for the train (Pearl city express) at 6.00pm. The booking clerk told me that he was wrongly mentioned the date of travelling and cancelled that ticket and booked another ticket i asked the debited amount to him but he told, 'the amount will be credited to my account automatically and don't worry'. But till date the amount is not credited to my account.
Please look into the matter and arrange to send the amount by cheque or credit the amount.
Thanks,
T. Vasu.

I had rs.5 only in my while went to use public toilet taking my 6 years old daughter. Caretak did not allowed both o[censored]s to enter into the toilet. He told me to leave your daughter out side and u only can go inside, since you have only rs.5. This kind of treatment in railway station toilet is shameful. Necessary action may be taken on this matter. This incident happened today on 23.12.2017 at 20: 45 hours.

I am dinu usually travel in trivandrum guruvayoor intercity express 16342. With reserved ticket... Complaint is that... Un reserved passengers (Season and general tickets) are fully occupied the reserved coaches d1, d2, d3. We have forced to occupy 4 members in reserved sets. Unauthorized persons are standing very tightly in reserved coaches we are not having sufficient breathing in the coaches. The reserved passengers will have to travel sleeplessly to ensure that their belongings are safe. T. T. E or other officials are not coming to solve the issue. This has been happening between trivandrum and kayamkulam daily. We are (Reserved persons) facing daily the problem. It is really a nuisance to the reserved passengers travelling in trains. Kindly take necessary action on this to serve people who is really suffering. Please take action if you are live. For further details please contact me. [protected]

I booked a travel ticket with pnr no; [protected] for travelling from tirunelveli (Ten) to villupuram (Vm) in train no: 12641 and my date of journey is 08.12.2017. At 12.36 pm, i received a message stating that train no; 12641 has been cancelled due to unavoidable circumstances. Based on this message, i booked another ticket pnr no; [protected] in train number 16128 and the date of journey is 09.12.2017 under tatkal quota. After booking this ticket, i came to know another message sent by your dept stating that train no: 12641of 08/12, which was stated as cancelled is now running as per schedule. So, i travelled as per the original schedule. But my second ticket which was booked in tatkal based on the message given by the dept cannot be cancelled since it was booked in tatkal quota. I request you to kindly look into the matter and make arrangement to refund the amount to me for the second ticket booked.
