CHENNAI: Passengers booked on a new train that was introduced between Chennai Egmore and Thanjavur had a tough time after the train that started from Egmore did not stop at Mambalam railway station on Sunday. However, railways have not taken action against the loco pilot because it was a rare occurrence.Sources said the driver realised the mistake soon after he crossed station and waited at Tambaram railway station till all passengers boarded. The passengers were brought by a suburban train and the loco pilot did not start the train till all of them boarded," an official said. He said the loco pilot had the list of scheduled stops, speed restrictions, stretches where train should be driven cautiously. "For some reason he missed the Mambalam stop."A majority of outbound trains from Egmore don't have a stop at Mambalam. This might have lead to the mistake, said a source. Only three or four outbound trains stop at Mambalam while all inbound trains stop at the railway station. It was the first day of the service when the loco pilot made the mistake. Uzhavan Express was introduced on September 1.

Seeking equitable development of all regions of the State, Member of Parliament from Kurupam and Union Minister of Tribal Affairs and Panchayati Raj V. Kishore Chandra Deo outlined a number of issues that would have to be addressed in the event of bifurcation of the State.In a letter to the Antony Committee, which he handed over during his meeting along with other Union Ministers from Seemandhra Region at New Delhi on Tuesday, he demanded that the headquarters of East Coast Railways be located in Visakhapatnam with Vijayawada Division added to it and the South Eastern Railway be shifted to Bubhaneswar as it was unrealistic to have it in Kolkata, which already had Eastern Railways headquarters.“Vishakhapatnam is situated at the centre of the east coast between Kolkata and Chennai. The East Coast Railways Headquarters which should have been located at Vishakhapatnam is unfortunately established at Bhubaneswar. Kolkata has two zonal headquarters – Eastern Railways and South Eastern Railways. While Kolkata is in the eastern part of the country, by no stretch of imagination can Kolkata be said to be any part of the South Eastern Region. The South Eastern Railway Headquarters may be shifted to Bhubaneswar with the Khurda Division attached to it and the East Coast Zonal Headquarters must be shifted to Vishakhapatnam with the addition of Vijayawada Division in lieu of the Khurda Division,” he wrote.

He sought creation of infrastructure at Visakhapatnam and stressed on facilities like information technology park, AIIMS, IIT, IIM and a Metro Rail service. He wanted a Maritime Research Institute, a Central University for specialised PG courses including Anthropology.

RAIPUR: Chhattisgarh government's move to modernize mass transport system for its capital and adjoining cities got a shot in the arm with the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) giving a final nod for construction of the inter-state metro rail link connecting Raipur and Durg. DMRC completed the feasibility study and has recommended for a detailed project report (DPR) that would see the metro rail chugging out of the city by 2021.It is learnt that the study has advised an elevated rail corridor with a mix of underground corridor as well.The first phase of the intercity project from Telibandha in Raipur to Poolgaon in Durg, a 45-km stretch with 20 stations, would cost an estimated Rs 6,000 crore. Work on it would commence once the Chhattisgarh government approves the DPR.

Passengers of AC train coaches will receive early warnings in the event of a fire as the Railways have begun installing an advanced safety system, which will stop trains automatically after the detection of smoke and fire.“After the successful trial on the Bhubaneswar Rajdhani, the Rail Coach Factory at Kapurthala has installed the improved fire alarm system on one more LHB rake, which will be used on the Ranchi Rajdhani train,” said a senior Railway Ministry official.The very early warning smoke detection system has a provision for interfacing with the air-brake system of the coaches.
