Only 20 trains are listed???? I have complained many times and asked for clarification on delay for 12873/12874 which is continually running late by average 7 hours late from last 14 years (since i started using this train). But no action is taken for this. It seems like we are travelling free of cost in this train. And the worst thing is we are paying for superfast charge :) This is the reply below which I have received from Railways for trains timing regarding 12873/12874 Jharkhand Express: ============== Ref: MORLY/E/2013/05031 dated 19.06.2013. Dear Sir, Your email representation cited above is acknowledged with thanks. The matter has been examined carefully and remarks are appended below :- The running particulars of 12873/12874 for last three months i.e. April to June 2013 has been scrutinized and reveals that 12873 has been made over 31 days to E.C.Railway at Barkakana. While 12874 was taken over at Barkakana from E.C.Railway 38 days (total run) late ranging from 110 minutes to 805 minutes and the same reached Hatia without any further delay (NLT) over S.E.Railway. Hence, the running of the said pair of service over S.E.Railway is quite satisfactory. However, the concerning Railways have been advised to monitor the running of 12873/12874 in order to ensure punctual running of the train. However, an inconvenience caused to the passengers is deeply regretted. Thanking you, Yours faithfully, Sd/- (M. D. Sahoo) Dy.C.O.M.(Safety) for Chief Passenger Transportation Manager, South Eastern Railway, 11, Garden Reach Road, Kolkata-43. ======================== more

I traveled by mysore- chennai kaveri exp twice on 6th and27th September . On both days the train was late by more than 2 hrs in a run of 3 hrs from mysore to bangalore.1st time at BNC it arrived by 1.30 am after being announced as arriving shortly from 1 am.2ndtime I tried SBC.On my reaching at 10 15pm the indicator said arrive.at 0 45 am against scheduled time of 11.30hrs. Later the touchscreen indicator said train running 2 hrs 28min late.But thereafter the announcement and TV monitor were giving contradictory timings.From 1 am onwards the monitor was showing arr.and dep times with 5 mins gap only starting with 1 am.Ultimately the train arrived at 1 35 am and left at 2 am. Both days sleep was totally disturbed.On 7th the train managed to reach MAS at 8am one hour late but on 28th it reached at 9 15 am late by morethan 2 hrs.This shows total lack of control even at the HE of SR. more
