In MP there is one train called Narmada Express (18233-18234) run between Indore and Bilaspur. It is the only train which connects these two city. Taking almost 24 hrs. it is very slow, it can go fast between Katni-Jabalpur, Indore-Bhopal (via Ujjain) and Katni-Bilaspur. sometimes I get frustrated in travelling and have to think many times to go to home. I wish this train should become superfast or can omit some stop in which the Intercity and super-fast trains don't stop.

#IRInfrastructure:Sir, as said in earlier request, Singareni Collieries has to supply coal to its customers at cheaper rate. At Raichur, Karnataka Thermal stn is there. Presently coal is being supplied fr Kothagudem via Dornakal, Kazipet, Secunderabad, Wadi to Raichur. Dornakal to Raichur is 535kms. If DORNAKAL-MIRYALAGUDA-GADWAL(300kms,SCR) is constructed coal can be supplied via Dornakal-Miryalguda-Gadwal-Raichur(350kns). It saves 200kms transportation cost. Make SCCL,TS,KS as project partenrs

Wait listed tickets, booked online, that don't get confirmed should be fully refunded. In present system passenger bears cancellation charges though he himself has not placed cancellation request.

#RailwayBudget reduce railway reservation advance ticket booking timing from 120 days to 30 or 60 days.this may be generating revenue for railway but seats availability situation is not clear and passengers are in dilemma to plan travel.

Sir, I would like to give suggestion on WESTERN/CENTRAL SUBURBAN Mumbai trains . 1)Name of SLOW train(which halt at all stations) should change as it gives wrong impression and understanding in public including railways employees that SLOW means LATE. As slow trains never arrive or departure on time. it always 10-15 minutes late.is people who stays at Khar or Mahim....stations do not have to reach home on time??? 2)Request to put all western and central railways of Mumbai train on GPRS. 3)

I would to suggest two things. 1.Why not to display the reason of train being delayed/cancelled along side train running status. Some AI algorithms may be developed to do this intelligently through automated systems instead of manual feeding. #IRComputrization #RailwayBudget #MinistryofRailway 2.There is a frequent problem of throwing waste while travelling. Generally i have to keep a polythene to store my waste later to be disposed. Dustbins should be there in trains.

#IRInfrastructure:Sir, Singareni Collieries is 126 yrs old company & is the only coal co. in south India which has been suplying coal to major thermal stations in south India. It has a threat fr imported coal fr Australia,Thailand. Adani Idustries is agent for imported coal. Now SCCL has to suply coal at cheaper rate than imported coal for which it needs railway lines. RAMAGUNDAM -MANUGUR(220kms) & BHADRACHALAM RD- SATTUPALLI(60kkms)are essential for connecting BHOOPALPALLI & SATTUPALLI blocks.

As bullet trains are distant dream, run first eleven-coach day express on non Rajdhani routes at 200 KM per hour connecting state capitals. Upgrading signalling to 360 KM speed. Chennai-mumbai route the oldest can be tried where express trains avg speed is only 53 KM per hour. To avoid accidents check every 200 KM 1. axle and refrigerant temperatures of AC coaches 2. Coupling strength of coaches electronically 3.Telephone access to drivers of crossing trains to confirm track on which they run.
