Once I had a very bad experience while traveling in train 08477 Utkal Express from Puri to Balasore. I thought the train will halt at Jaleswar, though my ticket reservation was upto Balasore. My plan was changed after ticket booking. It was around 2AM in night I was standing at the doors after my train crossed Balasore and I was literally shocked when my train didn't halt at Jaleswar. It crossed Jaleswar station at above 100km/h speed. I reached Hijli at around 3am. It was lockdown time and all roadways were closed between Odisha and West Bengal and RT PCR covid rules. Then I returned to Jaleswar from Hijli in Odisha Sampark Kranti Special Train. 4-5 hours went in a very worst situation. The TTE was arguing with me at Hijli that there is no seat available and no reservation allowed in Sampark Kranti. But I boarded the train without ticket and reached Jaleswar in morning 7:30.
Up and down schedule and halt of all trains should be same.
