| RailEnquiry Admin | Talgo test runs were Illegal, says CRS on : October 23, 2016 - 21:47:49 PM |
|
You may find it as a strange war of words between Railway and the Commissioner Railway safety (CRS) but it is real. Indian railway had conducted successful trial runs of Talgo between Delhi and Mumbai in laden and unladen condition. The trial run showed that journey between Delhi and Mumbai can be cut down by a significant four hrs as Talgo completed the total journey in just under 12 hrs (11 hrs 50 minutes precisely). Rajdhani Express completes the journey in 16 hrs as it cannot attain top speeds as compared to Talgo. Also Talgo being lighter can manage good composure at turns where it can de-accelerate late and accelerate fast than compared to coaches used in Rajdhani Express. All this trial work CRS says were ‘illegal’. The whole trial was illegal as stated by CRS now. The body says that Railway must seek permission and clearances from CRS before conducting any such trials as a part of standard procedure which had been done during the trial run of Talgo. However railway says that since the trial run of Talgo did not involve passengers therefore Railway never sought any clearance from CRS. Also in near future whether any permission will be sought from CRS from such trials it is yet to be decided. |

| RailEnquiry Admin | Flexi Fare for Indian Railways got backfired, why? on : October 23, 2016 - 17:55:05 PM |
|
While deploying flexi fare scheme Railway had great thoughts in mind, but the outcome was just unexpected. Once it was targeted that Railway will earn atleast 1000 crore more, once flexi fare scheme will be deployed on premium trains like Rajdhani, Shatabdi and Duronto but forget 1000 crore, just in the month of October railway lost 200 core. Thee obvious question will rise why? Why a scheme in Airlines is so fruitful while in Railways it got backfired? The first thing Railway never understood that Air travel was always a luxury for passengers who are ready to pay extra because it offers lot more convenience and save good amount of time while railway’s premium trains were never a luxury, they were just another of travelling more conveniently compared to other trains. Demanding fare equivalent to an aircraft or even more sometimes, without offering anything subsequent can never become lucrative. Railway must understand that during festive period when rail traffic reach to its extreme, it also affects punctuality of premium trains adversely. Trains besides their running period of 16hrs to 33 hrs reach their destinations late by 45 minutes to upto 5 hrs in extreme case which is seriously unacceptable for passengers who paid a premium price. Now with 232 crore rupee loss railway is wandering what just happened. They tried to compensate the loss happened due to decrease in freight through passenger trains with help of flexi fare but now at the end of the day they are losing their loyal passengers at brisk pace. During winter season when Christmas starts there was always waitlist in Rajdhanis connecting Goa or Mumbai by now; this year its opposite, railway is waiting or passengers. |
