রামপুরহাট থেকে দিল্লি সরাসরি ট্রেন পরিষেবা চালু করার প্রস্তাব দেত্তয়া উচিত ও যা সম্পূর্ণ যুক্তিসঙ্গত এবং প্রয়োজনীয়। এলাকাবাসী এবং যাত্রীদের সুবিধার্থে এই ধরনের সংযোগ চালু করা উচিত, বিশেষ করে যখন রাধিকাপুর, গড্ডা এবং মধুপুরের মতো স্থানগুলি ইতিমধ্যেই দিল্লির সঙ্গে সরাসরি সংযোগ স্থাপন করেছে। যেহেতু জসিডিহ থেকে এমনকি গোয়ার মতো দূরবর্তী গন্তব্যের ট্রেন পরিষেবা চালু আছে, রামপুরহাটের মতো একটি গুরুত্বপূর্ণ শহর থেকে দিল্লির ট্রেন পরিষেবা না থাকা এক ধরনের অবহেলার ইঙ্গিত দেয়। এটি শুধু যাত্রীদের সুবিধা নয়, এই অঞ্চলের আর্থ-সামাজিক উন্নতির জন্যও অত্যন্ত গুরুত্বপূর্ণ।

In my opinion railways should make future train sets with this coach composition 6 general class coaches including luggage loading capacity , 6 sleeper coaches , 8 ac class coaches ( which can include third ac or second ac or first ac or can be a mixture of these coaches ) and ( either 1 ac coach or 2 ac coaches can be removed to add pantry car coach and extra luggage coach ) so 6+6+8 total 20 and 2 electric locos ( 1 at front side of whole trainset and 1 at back side of the whole trainset ) so 20 +2 total 22 coaches , so that instead of giving lhb rakes to some trains which runs on a longer path railways should directly convert those mail or express or superfast express trains into these trains sets and cost of making lhb coaches will also be reduced or...

saved due to directly conversion of mail or express train into train sets and rake reversal time of many trains will be reduced wnd cost of doing rake reversal of a train will also be reduced ( due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) and speed of all trains can be increased (due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) . Please give your opinion on this but please don't give any argument related to politics so that my post don't get archived.

Or either railways can apply this coach composition in in some upcoming amrit bharat express trains so that we can see that whether this coach composition for train sets will become a successful idea or will become a flop idea.

एक सुझाव।।।

भारतीय रेल विभाग को चाहिए के जीस ट्रेन में 72 वेटिंग लिस्ट हो उसमें एक कोच बढ़ा करके उन सभी 72 वेटिंग सीटों को कंफर्म करें
ता की यात्रियों को असुविधा का सामना ना करना पड़े और बेहतरीन सफर का आनंद ले सकें
और...

इससे एक और फायदा भी है के यात्री को भी ये बात पता चल जाएगी के 72 वेटिंग तक सीटें कन्फर्म हो जाती हैं।

Great
Happy First Anniversary to the Asansol Hatia Express!
Initially launched as the Ranchi-New Giridih Express, it was later extended to Madhupur and then to Asansol due to timing constraints.

This was the first Mail/Express train serving New Giridih and Hazaribagh Town, becoming a popular option for travelers to the state capital, Ranchi.

It is also the only train in Jharkhand to feature a Vistadome coach.
