Now a days whistle is not blown by train guard, before th departure of a train. It is an age old practice created to alert passengers. th blowing of whistle will give an alert to all and people will rush back to get into the train without loss of time and safely. In the interest of th safety of our fellow citizens I suggest to ensure th blowing of whistle compulsory by th guard. I hope Railways will do th needful.

Respected Sir, #IRInfrastructure : In many stations., parcels kept at platforms are hindrance to people alighting. It would be helpful if they're unloaded once the people completely left the platform during arrival. Please recycle the water before dumping them to drainage. #IRInnovation : If we could make our couches lighter, trains will be faster and energy efficient too. And this will reduce Carbon footprints.

In non AC coaches the mobile charging facility is provided on the passage near toilets. The people who want to recharge their mobiles throng the passage. They nearly block the passage much to the inconvenience of other passengers who want to go toilets some even indulge in passing comm. Some people even keep open the entrance door for air which is again a dangerous act. I suggest plug points for charging mobiles can be provided near their seats/berths, and crowding at the passage can be avoided.

for IRCTC, passengers are forced to pay more for food. The contractors/employees don't carry Rate Card and always charge extra. Never they provide bill/receipt, even if demanded. I don't have any idea how to overcome. But the ministry please look into the same. Some fool proof method.

#IRComputerization. With a great and well performing network, It would be a great idea to have hand held terminals for the TTEs and Guards, to verify the credentials. If no show by any traveller or vacancy arising in running train, SMS can be sent to the RAC passenger for confirming his berth, with coach and berth number. First step, but can be expanded later. Increases the pleasure and confidence in travel.

I'd really appreciate if the Indian Railway introduces dustbins in the compartments and urge people to use them. I know it's hard because we Indians are ignorant but when one takes the initiative, the world follows. I'm with you, so you already got one well-wisher. The other problem is that the railway toilets directly open to the railway lines making them even more dirty. So if somehow you introduce a system of treating the excreta within the trains.
