Indian Railways Part 2 – Needs & Suggestions

  • Train timetable does not have Duronto and Express trains details mentioned in detail when searching between regions. It is mentioned in Index but when searching between two regions not available. It is a simple things please correct in forthcoming editions.
  • MRTS in Chennai needs to be increased speed for faster commutation.
  • Most compartments don’t have mobile or laptop chargers are public are running for charging point is a major problem. Please try to quickly within 3 months complete the modification of all coaches in war footing. This is a need for all but we are suffering severely. Some old coaches have near exit and some in alternative berths which doesn’t help. Every berth actually needs a charging point since even children use mobile phones or tablets or laptops. Please help. Order all coaches for maintenance to add this feature quickly.
  • A/C coaches needs to be re modified for better cooling for each berth. After we put the curtain the cooling doesn’t flow.
  • Each Railway region in individual capacity must have Wi-Fi coaches for INTERNET access and railways can earn through this value added service. The charges can be paid by the user by web or app of IRCTC and can use the random code to access the internet. It must be made hack proof with help of IIT, IISC, CDAC, etc, and tested in A/C and duronto coaches and long distance trains before implementing in sleeper coaches. It must be random code for each user. The charges should be minimal to increase usage and secure network so that users are not hacked when using these networks. Long standing need in works for several years please try to start in few trains it will slowly reach all by next 2 years. More than railway stations trains need Wi-Fi since in trains there is network issue from mobile operators and most of the work are affected.
  • TV in sitting chair car or chair car seats like in aeroplane behind seat will benefit lot of people mostly travelling by Shatabdi which needs a much needed make over. The individual TV will not disturb other old passengers if centralised TV placed for all passengers it will disturb and public will have various choices on which TV channel or program to watch. Launch on Nehru birthday by secretly creating the coaches and making grand launch by PM.
  • Toilets cleaning at all major stations made compulsory and filling water at major stations were trains stop more than 10 minutes. Railways need to keep staff ready or use robotic arms for automatic filling of water.
  • Allowing buses to enter Chennai Egmore railway station.
