IR now is foolishly wasting money and resources in manufacturing "God knows what"....
Humsafars...Suvidha....Antyodaya....swarna shatabdis....Utkrisht rakes....Gatimaan....Vande bharat...Vande bharat sleeper....Vande metro...Tejas rajdhani...Tejas shatabdi...Uday...Amrit Bharat.....Double decker....and what not in coming future...

This kind of heterogenous working reminds me of my childhood days when i used to have a flickering mind....and never used to focus on one thing at a time.....
Why...
more...
so much "Khichdi" nowadays ?

Why cant they keep it simple and clear.
Run:
Rajdhani with Tejas rakes.
Shatabdi and Gatimaan with Vande bharat rakes.
Duronto with Vande bharat sleeper rakes (AC and Non AC both)
Scrap Humsafar Tag & rename them Garib Rath.


More suggestions or criticisms are welcome.

The branding of trains in democratic setup like India is to differentiate and also highlight during the elections. This is the same for all the government's and railway ministers (some times) promoting their parties or image.

Indian railways could not able to merge all the similar category trains into a generic name.

(1)...
more...
As we discussed earlier, the type of trains like Duronto, Humsafar, Gareeb Rath, SK, Rajdhani, Tejas Rajdhani, Vande Bharat Sleeper, etc are one category - "AC Superfast" trains.

(2) we can take all long distance trains like Mail, Express, Antyodaya, Vivek, etc as "Express" Trains with commuting average speed of less than 60 kmph.

(3) Trains in SuperFast category can continue as "Super Fast" trains with minimum 60 kmph average speeds

(4) Shatabdhi, Vande Bharat, Gatiman, Etc are in "AC Intercity" trains.

(5) Jan shatabdhi, Intercity, Vande Metro, Double Decker, etc in the " Intercity " Trains category.

(6) All passenger trains, MEMU, DEMUs, etc can be combined into one category "Janata Express".

(7) All local trains will continue as "Suburban" trains.

These categories will reduce the confusion and also streamline ticket prices across the current nomenclature and avoid confusion amongst ticketing staff in issuing the tickets.

Agree Agree Agree
Its my personal opinion that IR should introduce atleast one First AC coach in all the trains which are running 2500kms+ and/or 36hrs+ one journey mandatorily alongwith other ameneties complimentary like toileteries and shower card facility onboard included in the 1st AC ticket fare for passengers. Just like in Japanese Railways and Amtrak provides for its passengers. This will really improve the image of Indian Railways' long journey trains which deserve some "hospitality" revamp and improvements.
Views are welcome.

Didn't Frontier Mail had attached showers, larger cabins [they opened directly onto platforms] and even servant's quarters back in the day? I think IR can provide uber luxury services if they want so. After all, some of the most expensive and luxurious trains in the world run in India [looks at Maharaja Express]. But I doubt IR would bring anything new to 1A anytime soon.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake.
