Very happy to see that the forum is now again filled up with travelogues and shared railfaning experiences. It is a breath of fresh air to see that the IRI forum not being reduced to a platform for meaningless bickering and particularly a forum for complaining and disrespecting an entire region because a train got extended from your hometown, even if the train is a crawler and wasn't yours in the first place, it got extended from Varanasi !
We are ferroequinologists! Let's continue to enjoy those iron machines that are quite frankly indispensible to the modern style of life.

while it is indeed very flattering to receive credit and inspiring so many of the present members to start sharing their railfanning and travel experiences, IRI has always been a platform where such write ups were commom. It is not a new trend rather an old and elegant character that I tried reminiscing while jotting my horrid experience while being on board the Ratna Superfast Express.
Credits to older members like PKV sir, Soumitra Sir and Zahwaib for inspiring me in my early years on this site.
Keep sharing your experiences guys, been loving everyone of them whether it was Kumund's vivid and clearly recollected travelogue, or Piyush's recollection of the journey that took a surprising twist, or Saurabh sir's insight into the circa 2003 when he was an hopeful IIT aspirant, or even Gagan's concise yet perfectly visual recollection...
Disclaimer :- Tagging the aforementioned train and station was fully coincidental and had no objective to offend any particular railway community and shouldn't be interpreted as such....
Signing off guys...

Great Great Agree
One more breaking news 🗞️
Eastern Railway has not notified about trip extension of 03413 MLDT NDLS SPL Despite having good patronage & a dedicated rake.

2 days ago Malda MP has stated a demand to RM for Malda Town New Delhi Superfast new train & ER cancelled it's trips . So high chance is there that it will be regularised...
