    I've been working in Railways for 4 years. This video is very close to the truth. But there are many more factors related to this. I was a Loco pilot before. The biggest problem is related to the personnel. The toxic work culture effects every level of the employees. Drm ridicules the officers below him and officer berates the lower level workers. There are no managers in Indian Railways, there are 'sahibs' in railways. The British culture is still prevalent. No matter what Ashwini Vaishnaw says, the sahib culture is not going away. I urge the public take more interest in your Railways. Otherwise the accidents like that in Bilaspur will happen more frequently.

      @@mominulhussain7684 The recent one. Where one goods train overshoot red signal and hit the goods train standing in Singhpur station. The Loco Pilot and the Assistant Loco pilot of the train were working for 15 hours straight. The accident happened at around 6.45 Am. In our language we call the 3 Am to 7 Am time as the deadly hours. As sleep hits us the most during these hours. After 15 hours of work Lp and Alp quite naturally fell asleep. And as a result it hit the train ahead of them and also hit the goods train on the opposite line. I think both Lp and Alp were dead on spot.

    The good thing about the Indian Railways is that while change is slow and gradual, it is still happening. While we can't notice a substantial difference year on year, we can notice significant changes over a span of five years. While good, more changes are necessary to ensure that we keep improving and delivering better quality rail travel to our citizens.

    Slack time is a big issue, Railway is not updating the time tables of the trains which are running on double line route after upgradation from single line route. For example 22687 MYS-BSB SF Express it is having a lot of slack time between Daund Junction and Manmad junction covering 237 kilometres at an average speed of 38.959 kmph in 6 hours and 5 minutes.This train is also the victim of Inter Division Rivalry as it never reaches it's destination (Varanasi) on time.

    I am Indian and living in China since last 4yrs and travelling in trains almost every second week. And to be surprise for all Indians … I have faced only 1 time that my train was late and it was 15min and talking about speed … you have screen in every coach where you can see the speed and I have never seen any trains going below 160km/hr unless it’s stoppage. And average speed they maintain is around 205km/hr.
    Now people think that it might be too costly to travel in a bullet train, then one more thing to be surprise of… a nearby city which around 80km cost me 18rmb which is roughly around 200rs.
    From Shanghai to Qingdao, a distance of 730km(Delhi to Varanasi) will cost you 300rmb equals to 3500 INR and it will take only 4-5hrs.

    Bhai I work as a section controller in ECR and the biggest reason behind loss in punctuality is the sudden surge of Goods trains. We face pressure from officers who overlook goods traffic to run freight trains ahead of express trains because of economical gain from freight trains as a result of which Mail/Express trains stop at every station and lose punctuality. We even give goods train precedence over MEMU trains

    Well, I am ex-railway personnel and have worked on increasing the speed on the track. In the past few years, railways have been working at a rapid pace, and we were able to raise the speed in my section from 90 to 110 Kmph in two years. The inter-railway rivalry is actually a big problem, the TSR and PSR are going to exist as day-to-day work is very complex and requires a lot of autonomy at lower levels too but many people are against it.

With DFC and track upgradation/electrification, we will see a significant rise in revenue with which improvements will come. It’s not the employees fault if the management makes questionable decisions. The railways have started tests to increase the MPS in major routes to 130 KPH. It is gradual but in the next decade or so, we will see speeds near 200 KPH quite frequently.

    The problem is even in 2023, we're still trying to upgrade our Mainlines like Howrah - Chennai, Chennai - Mumbai, Chennai - Bangalore, etc. to 130 kmph...
    Other important routes like Ahmedabad - Jaipur - Delhi, Delhi - Moradabad - Lucknow, Lucknow - Gorakhpur - Chhapra, Varanasi - Kathihar - NJP - Guwahati, Secunderabad - Wadi, etc. can only achieve 110 kmph...
    Routes like Howrah - Mumbai and Delhi - Chennai is considered"Class A" line on paper that can handle 160 kmph but in reality trains run at 130 kmph maximum and 110 kmph in some sections...
    Only Delhi - Mumbai and Kolkata - Delhi routes are being upgraded to 160 kmph while as of April 2023 only Delhi - Agra section can handle 160 kmph top speed...

    Glad you mentioned the point of poor infrastructure. Also the railways are hyping electrification as the next big thing and it will increase the speed by miles, but in reality, they should first focus on upgrading the tracks. there are many section in our Indian railways where electrification had no effect in speed increase just because the tracs themselves do not support high speed. Also the railways should look upon the interzonal politics as well. Many time I have seen train standing outside zonal interchange stations even though platforms are available to take those. this then increase the delays and also the passengers then won't get much time to even buy basic essentials from the station like water and food as the train has to depart as soon as possible in these cases.
    Plus Railways now days are blindly bringing out trains like Vande Bharat and also reducing the sleeper class coaches without thinking any thing. They don't realize that still majority of our population cannot afford anything more than the sleeper class. Wish they think about this as well

Rourkela - Bhubaneswar Intercity train; while going from Rourkela to Bhubaneswar, it takes 1.5 hours to cross the Dhenkanal - Bhubaneswar section of just 60 kms, but while coming back, it takes 60 mins to cross the same section.

    illegal chain pulling is also one of the reasons why trains get slowed down and that cascades down to the other trains behind as well , as the tracks are shared . that is one point which normally gets missed. also, its not only the tracks but the whole network like signalling, switches, curves etc etc which affects a train speed.

It takes 2.5 hours on average to travel 100km in Indian local trains which is a bad time. So a guy that lives 50km away from a city has to travel 1.2 hours just to work in the city, such people would instead choose to settle in the city as 2 hours of commute is a lot. This increases pressure in city residences as more people want to stay rather than commute. Now imagine the time to commute was reduced in half with introduction of high speed local trains now these people can prefer to stay 40-50km away from city and can commute to the city within 30-40 mins for work and come back in reasonable time. This will save city residences and also develop satellite towns which is better for overall development.

    I recently went on a train ride from Delhi to Ludhiana on my trip to India. Unfortunately, the only view I could see outside was of either rubbish/trash or farms. Moreover, as u mentioned, the trains are nowhere near as quick as in other countries. India has got to take some serious steps to fix its infrastructure and waste disposal/management system if it wants to gain the respect of Western countries and/or compete with China.I'm jst saying this as a person of Indian origin who wants India and Indians to be respected outside of India as well and the image of India overseas to change.

    If you’re comparing with china then compare it with area as well
    Average speed of train is dependent upon the speed of train/ area covered
    India mein her thode distance k baad koi village ya koi district aata hai bcoz of train has to dec its speed either to stop in that station or to avoid any collision but in china there is nothing like that.
    If you really want, then compare the cost and people travelling in train between both the countries. India mein train mein travelling cost kitni hai aur china mein kitni hai.
    And don’t mind there are countries where the price of cost of flight is way much cheaper than train and for them travelling in train is a luxury.
    Note: If you want to grow then never focus on problem. Target on the solution. Provide the solution.

    1. This year's budget has some very significant investment in railway infrastructure.
    2. Completion of DFC will significantly decrease congestion and improve average speeds.
    3. Long term plan of Indian railways seems to be use bullet trains for high speed travel
    4. Efforts taken by IR to reduce operational expenses such as introduction of IRCTC trains and construction of captive solar power plants on railway land to decrease cost of power will have long term benefits.
    On a different note, it is somewhat surprising that for Japan, the separation of the Japanese railways into zones increased its competitiveness while the opposite seems to be true for us.....I think the real reason for our problems is the very extreme amount of centralization of management resulting in very tall hierarchies with many levels (which delays decision making)

If the train was supposed to leave at 10 am then he would reach the station at 10:30 am. I had once asked him if he had to face penalty because of being late. He told me "I am one of the few people who reach on time (although he has late). My colleagues mostly reach atleast 1 hour after the departing time of the train."

    Our track quality is actually good if we see the world ranking with other countries and perhaps better in South Asia with only Indonesia matching our quality.. .yes South Korea Japan n China are ahead of us....... Replacement of track in overused arterial routes with high capacity is a challenge ..... But somewhere due to lack of willpower n poor work culture of few zones especially in Prayagraj NCR the train punctuality has been very poor .. but if we look at Delhi Mumbai route via vadodara speed n punctuality of train has really improved....

    Hi! One of the most crucial points you missed is the problem of CRO, Cattle Runover. Lack of Fencing around the tracks leads to many astray cattle getting hit by trains, which would turn into an accident if the train is moving fast enough. I'm sure you might have heard of the Vande Bharats falling victim to CRO. Its a shame that track fencing, something so basic, does not exist. Then again, i have seen people taking Bricks lying beside the tracks, which are to be used for fencing, that too, educated people with vehicles. What can you expect from a public organisation when the people whom it is supposed to serve, are rotten to their core and do not even deserve their services in the first place.

    Their are many reasons but most importantly are
    1. Illiterate people doing rubbish in railway tracks
    2. Cows (leaves on grass field and cause of accident)
    3. Chain pulling
    4. Railway tracks and management is kind of weak according to each type of train
    5. Corrupt politicians

    We need special elevated tracks for all highspeed trains just like rrts trains so that all of our highspeed trains can run on their full potential. Trust me then we can build our own trains for 250 kmph and that would be enough for this country
