Protect your pride- Indian Railways

Leave a comment

Indian railways structure is becoming old day by day. The creaking structure has too many loopholes which have to be cured and taken care off immediately. Regular accidents are happening and passengers are getting worried to travel by the train. Besides the facility to track train in India, one has to know the loopholes that are becoming evident in the infrastructure day by day. Railway is a pride for all the Indians. We should protect it and make it beautiful so that people can boast about it.

In order to make things normal, the railway ministers are working on a project, which is known as Rashtriya Rail Sangraksha Kosh. It has arranged a sum total of around Rs1, 10,239 crore to build up the falling giant structure of Indian railways.

But what is the procedure of maintenance and what should be given priority? There is a six member committee put up by the railway ministry to plan a scheme, which will raise funds and they will make a list of what should be repaired and constructed to make the railways more convenient. They will get a lot of funding from the Finance Ministry, which will help the committee to plan and build more level crossings, advanced signaling systems and modern telecom structures, which will make the communication system easier leading to less accidents and misinterpretations.

1_track_my_trainMany mechanical, civil and electrical engineers are needed to develop the infrastructure in a modern way. To make things up to date, a number of engineers have to be appointed and more funds are needed to aid their salary. For that, the committee needs to make a valid proposal and send it to the Financial Ministry so that they can help them further. If the Finance Ministry is convinced enough, there will be desired amount of funds to make things fall into places.

The present situation of Indian railway is not in a very good condition. In the present year, there have been eight accidents only because of derailments. Trains get derailed because of the poor condition of rail tracks. These are needed to be repaired immediately.

The main purpose of Rashtriya Rail Sangraksha Kosh is to arrange money and develop the railway infrastructure. It has to have a corpus of at least 1, 10,239 crore rupees, which are needed for the up gradation. This is for strengthening the rail and safety infrastructure. This is because regular train accidents are claiming innocent lives. People are not confident anymore to avail a train for travelling from one place to another. To bring back this confidence, the railway ministry should improve all the railway tracks and signaling system so that regular accidents due to mis-signaling can be avoided.

We all know that Indian Railway is such a big network and it is very difficult to maintain every nooks and corner of it. But the ministry has to be cautious. The regular mishaps that are occurring due to bad infrastructure should be avoided and to be taken very seriously.

Water Train to Parched Latur a Heaven Sent

Leave a comment

 The Indian Railways has sent a ‘water train’, a train carrying 5,50,000  litres of drinking water as per a humanitarian gesture to the parched district of Latur, in Maharashtra state.

On Monday, April 11, the Indian Railways sent forth a train having 10 wagons to carry the precious, life giving water from Miraj (Western Maharashtra) to Latur district in the region of Marathwada.

The train reached Latur at 4 a.m., after traversing a 375 km journey. It was welcomed with great cheer and fanfare. There was a sense of relief among top civil and police officials, the mayor of Latur and general public. At the same time, security was beefed up around the train to avoid any untoward incident.

Officials began off-loading of water in a dried up well owned by a local framer situated near the railways station. This water will be carried later to a filtration plant, using pipes.

After the process of filtration, which will make the water potable, water will be dispatched to remote villages in the district. Water will be transported in tankers to people who are awaiting the water with great expectation. There are kilometres of queues of colourful plastic and steel pots, pitchers and bucket made of hundreds of people who are waiting for water.

This water initiative was launched by Suresh Prabhu, Minister of Railways to help people in his home state reeling under water crisis. The crisis was especially severe in Latur district villages, which have a population of 2.45 crores.

As per instructions of Suresh Prabhu, 50 tank wagons like ones used to transport milk and oil were dispatched to Kota workshop in Rajasthan, where they were cleaned thoroughly and made ready for undertaking the journey to Sangli where they were filled with water.

Indian Railways is also planning more of such trips for water needs to fulfil the thirst of villages of Latur district. But the schedule of such trains has not yet been finalized. At present, 15,000 villages of the state mostly in Osmanabad, Beed and Latur district are reeling from severe water scarcity.

Latur has been rocked by stray incidents of violence related to water shortage. As such, the police has set up prohibitory orders till May 3. Also public reservoirs and storage tanks for water are being protected by armed guards of the police face.

 Some villagers of the district had to trek over 12 kms for getting a pot of water. As such domestic water pots are kept secure under lock and key. There is a cessation of teaching at schools, which have been closed. Social events like marriage have also been stalled. Agriculture activities have come to a close.

The 10 wagons of the water train were dispatched to Latur from Miraj railways station (from Maharashtra’s’ Sangli district) where they were filled  with water. Each wagon had a capacity of 50,000 litres.

The district administration had got hold of a large well near the Latur station for storing the water, prior to curing at the filtration plant. The success of train running status of the water train is inspiring further action. A second water train made of 50 wagons is set to be ready to store and transport water to Latur, according to officials.

Don’t Search For The Driver In This Train!

Leave a comment

Railways have always been an integral part our country. Any sort of development in this department can directly or indirectly influence the growth in all other spheres. Of late, significant efforts are being made to improvise the existing railways system in our country. Delhi has taken a step ahead in this context and introduced automated trains, which don’t require a driver to operate it. It is all set to run these trains from 2017. The parts are being manufactured in Korea and are assembled here in India. Let’s have a closer look into this train.

spot the train on mobile

How does this train run…?

The control room takes care of all the control aspects of this train. A two way communication system is established between the control room and the train. Every coach is equipped with a CCTV system, which enables the control room to live stream. Despite taking all necessary steps to keep the tracks clean, small obstacles can make their way onto the tracks. A device, which is capable of removing these minor obstructions, is attached to these trains. Front facing cameras are also attached to avert any possible damages.

What makes them special….?

Check out the special features of this train here under:

  • This train doesn’t require an additional cabin for the driving crew. This creates an additional space to accommodate 60 more passengers.
  • The automated mechanism enables the train to move at an enhanced speed.
  • Energy consumption of the train retards by about 20% cutting down the costs incurred due to power supply.
  • The coaches are designed to be as wide as 3.2m.
  • Much to the relief of the internet addicts, the passengers of this train are enabled with free Wi-Fi. Moreover, this train also has enough number of mobile charging points and USB ports.
  • The entire route map is digitalized and passengers can spot the train on mobile. The LCD screens support real time video streaming, videos, graphics and animations.
  • The ventilation system is so designed that it promotes improved air circulation.
  • An additional space is created to accommodate 12 extra passengers in each coach by placing the equipment beneath the seats.
  • The interior of the train looks appealing to the eyes as the floor design is carefully chosen to be attractive.
  • Unlike orthodox trains, they are truly quiet in operation. The wheels are powered with noise dampers, which make it possible for them.

Color coding:

The color coding introduced for these trains have to be given credit for an increase in its passenger capacity. The key features of this coding are detailed below:

  • Each of the six coaches is equipped with these colored seats.
  • The first and last coaches are completely reserved for women. These seats are indicated by pink color.
  • Dark colors are used to represent reserved seats. If the color of a seat is blue, the reserved ones will be in dark blue.

These trains introduced by the Delhi Metro seems to be promising and the successful implementation of these trains will soon place Delhi among those few cities, which has driverless train system.
