Indian Railway charges 50 percent of base fare for children traveling by train who fall in age between 6-12 years. There is no charge for kids below 5 years of age. But strangely, Shakti Kapoor - a Bollywood (Hindi Film industry) actor, who was born on September 3, 1958, and hence is comfortably over 50 years of age now, still pays for half ticket, and not for full ticket charges applicable to all adult passengers.

We researched a bit tried to find out if any special concession is given to bollywood actors. The result of our research was - No, there is no provision for any special concession for those working in Indian Cinema.

Then why Shakti Kapoor is getting so much travel concession? All other actors are paying full amount.
Is it because he won the Filmfare award for the best performance in a comic role? Or, Is railway in India afraid of him? We thought there might be some fear among railway employees since he has been one of the leading villains in Bollywood movies for more than …

In order to give everyone a fair chance of booking railway ticket online, Indian Railways board has taken a decision to limit the maximum number of tickets that can be booked online between 0800 hrs and 1200 hrs. Now only 1 ticket can be booked per user session during this period.



If people try to access the reservation system through multiple login's, then they will be automatically logged out from the site and their session will be terminated. Some users might find that even outside this time period they are being logged out of the IRCTC. The solution to this problem is given here.

The restriction on number of tickets booked online will be applicable to agents too. However, it will exclude bookings made for Defence Forces under a prior warrant to do so.

Many agents and travel agencies are known book tickets in advance which leaves very few tickets available to general public for booking. This is particularly a problem during peak season. Summer holidays and festival period also…

Multiple IRCTC logins are not allowed The irctc.co.in site, ever since it has been upgraded/ changed to next generation site, is infected by a strange problem where a user session gets terminated automatically and a user is left frustrated as he needs to login or singn in again in order to complete the ticket booking, which is what irctc site is…

While it's easy to order food in train these days while traveling, some mouth watering snacks are handy to have to get rid off hunger quickly, especially when the time is not right for main course.


Here are some yummy snacks in train ideas

Potato Chips: These are easy to carry and tasty slices of, sometimes fried and sometimes non fried, potatoes. They come in different flavors and are equally liked among children and adults. While those suffering from diabetes should avoid them, they are rich in carbohydrates which provide instant energy.

Bhujia: One of the crispiest snack's made from spiced up besan (gram flour). Spices include moth dal, salt, red chilli, black pepper, cardamom, cloves, groundnut oil, etc. We recommend you buy "Bikaneri Bhujia," only. Bikaneri bhujia is original and it is the place where this snack is prepared best. You can either eat it individually or you can even fill it in burgers, take it with chapati's.

Samosa: These are triangular in shape…

In Scotland a train route was constructed from Glasgow to Mallaig (Highlands), and it is perhaps the world's most beautiful, the prettiest, train route's. This route of West Highland Railway is a pride of British Railways, no wonder they call it "A line for all seasons".

The whole railway route is so beautiful that it has been featured in movie "Harry Potter and Chamber of Secrets". The most beautiful scene comes across the eyes of passengers when the train cross over Glenfinnan Viaduct. A viaduct is a long bridge-like structure, typically a series of arches, carrying a road or railway across a valley or other low ground.

Glenfinnan Viaduct is built from mass concrete, and has 21 semicircular spans of 50 feet (15 m). It is the longest concrete railway bridge in Scotland at 416 yards (380 m), and crosses the River Finnan at a height of 100 feet (30 m). 
The west highland railway line was opened publicly on August 7, 1894 when the first train reached Fort Wi…

It's about time that that we hear inside a normal passenger train - "Doors will open on the left, please mind the gap". Indian Railway seriously need to learn from DMRC (Delhi Metro Rail Corporation) and other metro services in India like, Mumbai metro and Kolkata Metro. For such a proud railway organization, the rolling stock of Indian Railway is too outdated.

Passenger to Metro Train Conversion Need There are plenty of reasons as to why Indian railway should look to convert all its passenger trains to metro trains.

Why Metro Train
Travelling in a metro train an experience to tell. Traveling by metro feels like one is moving around the city on a  palace on wheels, like a Maharaja. Metro rail services are neat and clean and people are well disciplined. They are happy to giveaway their seats to ladies and senior citizens without fight. Children and women feel safe while traveling by metro.
