DADN-KYQ Express, NR/LKO ka Aatank.

So, for some urgent work, I had to return home to Varanasi from Lucknow. The original plan was to return via Ekatmata Express, but due to some unforeseen circumstances with my Thar, I had to return back from midway to the station.

So,...
more...

another hour, another plan. The 19305, DADN-KYQ Express suited me the best, so I booked the tickets in current availability. Hopped on an Uber and that was the fastest commute in my entire journey, reached Charbagh from Ekana in just over 20 minutes.

The train was on time till Kanpur, and as soon as it entered NR, it instantly got late. Still, I hoped the delay would not exceed 45 minutes. But the great NR/LKO. They were playing with a GM saloon and two ALCos on the PF-2 where the train was supposed to be received.

Shaheed Express was taken on the vacant PF-3 first, and when the ALCos finally got done with the parking simulator, Bagh Express was received on PF-2. And while it was a pleasant surprise to see coach display indicators on LKO, they were working with a mind of their own. Data of my still nowhere to be seen train was displayed while Bagh was on PF-2. And that of Shaheed started being displayed after it's departure.

Finally, after a delay of 1.5 hours, the train arrived on PF-3 and departed after accumulating a few more minutes of delay. But here comes something I hadn't expected from NR/LKO even in my dreams. The train reached SLN in around 1hr 20min, averaging more than 100kmph. And covered SLN-JOP in around 50 minutes, again an average of 100kmph. Now I was sure, we'd reach Varanasi before 11:30.

And then started typical NR behavior. The train was halted at every station to let the freights gain some progress, even though we were still late, officially. And finally the train was halted at Babatpur because operational block was taken. A totally avoidable situation, had they run the train on the schedule it was running.

The train halted there for almost an hour. Another block was scheduled if the previous one didn't work (they were welding the tracks), and exactly the same thing happened. But somehow we were allowed to proceed, supposedly because the train was full of people appearing for some exam, and they got agitated. The train was halted yet again at Shivpur and Varanasi outers.

At this point I was so annoyed, I deboarded and started walking towards the station. I boarded back when the train started crawling towards the station. Finally it reached BSB around 2 hours late. ½ hour of gained delay, even with a track-burning run, and a heavy slack in last 50km.

You can trust a wolf to guard the sheep, but can't trust NR to reach somewhere on time. Attached here are some pictures I took while waiting for my train. Well, except for the train I was traveling in.

P.S. Farakka is still displayed as MLDT-NDLS at BSB. And while the train boards are still printed and handwritten, CDO/KIR has taken extra steps to paint ER again wherever it had been peeled off. They're surely reading some blogs here.

Kumud.

DADN-KYQ Express, NR/LKO ka Aatank.

To bhai kuch urgent kaam ki wajah se, mujhe Lucknow se Varanasi ghar wapas jaana pad raha tha. Plan to original Ekatmata Express se return karne ka tha, par mere Thar mein kuch anjaane halat ki wajah se, station ke beech se wapas lautna pada.

To phir ek aur ghanta, ek aur plan. 19305, DADN-KYQ Express mujhe sabse better laga, to maine tickets book kar diya current availability mein. Uber pe chadha aur yeh mera fastest commute tha poora safar mein, 20 minute mein Ekana se Charbagh pahunch gaya.

Train Kanpur tak time pe thi, par jaise hi NR mein enter hui, late hona shuru ho gayi. Phir bhi, maine umeed ki 45 minutes se jyada delay na ho. Par NR/LKO ne keh diya "No way". Unhone GM saloon aur do ALCos ke saath khela PF-2 mein jahan train receive honi thi.

Shaheed Express pehle vacant PF-3 pe gayi, aur jab ALCos finally parking simulator se free ho gaye, Bagh Express PF-2 pe receive ki gayi. Aur jab mujhe LKO pe coach display indicators dikhe, woh apna alag dimag chalane lage the. Meri train ka data dikha rahe the jab tak Bagh PF-2 pe thi. Shaheed ka display hua jab woh chali gayi.

Ant mein, 1.5 ghante delay ke baad, train aayi PF-3 pe aur chali gayi ek aur kuch minutes delay accumulate karke. Par yahaan aaya ek unexpected twist NR/LKO ka. Train pahunch gayi SLN mein 1 ghante 20 minute mein, averaging 100kmph se zyada. Aur SLN-JOP mein around 50 minutes mein, phir se average 100kmph. Ab main sure tha ki 11:30 se pehle pahunch jayenge Varanasi.

Phir shuru hui typical NR behaviour. Train roki har station pe taki freight trains thoda progress kar sake, bina kisi reason ke hote hue late. Aur ant mein train roki Babatpur mein kyonki operational block tha. Ek poori tarah avoidable situation, agar woh train schedule pe chalate.

Train wahaan lagbhag ek ghante ke liye ruki. Agar pehla block kaam nahi karta to dusra tha schedule par, aur bilkul waisa hi hua. Par somehow humein aage jaane diya, kyunki train bharpoor logon se bhari thi jo kisi exam ke liye ja rahe the, aur unka gussa tha. Train fir roki Shivpur aur Varanasi ke outskirts mein.

Is point pe main itna pareshan ho gaya tha, ki main gaadi se utar ke station ki taraf chal pada. Wapas chadha jab train dheere gaadi chalane lagi station ki taraf. Ant mein BSB pahunchi lagbhag 2 ghante late. ½ ghante ka delay bhara, tab bhi chalai jaa rahi thi train, aur last 50km mein heavy slack tha.

Ek sher ko samajh sakte ho ki bakriyon ka dhyan rakh sakta hai, par NR pe bharosa nahi hai ki samay pe kahin pahunch payega. Yahaan kuch tasveerein hain jo maine apni train ka intezaar karte hue li. Well, train ke alawa jisme main safar kar raha tha.

P.S. Farakka ab bhi BSB mein MLDT-NDLS ke naam se dikha ja raha hai. Aur jabki train boards ab bhi printed aur handwritten hain, CDO/KIR ne extra steps liye hain paint karne ke liya ER ko wapas jahan se peel off hua tha. Yeh log yahaan kuch blogs padh rahe hain, sure hai.

Kumud.

@6166680-23 @thedemigod

Yes yes such things does happen in our region as well. All platforms will be free but for reasons unknown, the train gets detained at the home signal or somewhere before.
.
The reason for my question was, despite being a 110 kmph MPS route, maintaining 100 kmph avg is really a big deal.

Are you a school going child? If not, stop behaving like one.

Not that NCR/PRYJ is any good, but it's a thousand times better than NR/LKO. For sure, there are operational constraints, but NR slept until it became problematic. And still, they haven't done anything significant to alleviate the issue.

Everything you mentioned here is correct to some extent.
I'd just like tell you that I've observed LKO since many years. Constant improvements are being done in comparison to yester years but since railways in Lucknow lacks adequate political focus which is requisitely needed to take some giant steps towards major yard remodeling, things don't appear to improve to people outside.
Problems like lack of quadruple entry/exit lines, old age interlockings, ample of unnecessary points and crossings, lack of PFs, freight yard, and to some extent some laggy controlling of trains too. You...

might be knowing that Moradabad Div controls the train just after Alamnagar towards MB. This needs to be addressed. I think LKO Div should control trains somewhere near to Shahjahanpur and if not upto Hardoi to the least.
To everybody's knowing I would like to tell that improvements are visible although they are slow. Now lately there is two way signalling from LKO to penultimate halts like MKG, AMG, UTR. Quadruple entry/exit lines are under construction from Dilkusha Cabin to LKO. 3rd/4th line construction is at full pace from Barabanki to Malhaur. RRI building construction is complete since years. PFs lengths are increased to 600m except I suppose PF4/5. There's a huge VB Maintenance Depot under construction (although it has nothing to do with traffic management). There are media news' about a PF with provision of cabway under LKO NR. In very near future, I suppose there could be major diverisons in traffic from LKO to other bypasses around LKO whether it be Utraitia-Transport Nagar-Alamnagar or Aishbagh-Manaknagar. Utraitia is under development in AmritBharat Scheme. Alamnagar is now a future capable satellite station. Everytime we visit LKO, we see paralles departures and arrivals which were rare in LKO. Trains move with good speed in yard while departing or arriving. Signs are ominous.

Concluding, LKO can't be compared to any other city like PRYJ or BSB. Its unfair too. Lately Varanasi is under terrific political focus, PRYJ handles IRs major trunk route but LKO neither has any trunk route passing through nor does it has that dynamic political representation like MP from Godda Mr. Dubey. Also NR had the hefty task of developing Ayodhya under it's belt. A slight miscue and you could see top official being transferred from LKO just after PM visited AY. There are too many things going around im LKO NR which might be the reason of slow progress in LKO Yard. Just imagine AY developed like leaps and bounds while LKO remained as it is. Zonal warfares are at top notch. NER NR are never seen cooperative with each other.
Although we are hopeful of a better LKO particularly in very near future with small improvements gearing up for that major yard remodeling.
Glad you wrote something about the issues LKO has and faces. We'll all see LKO evolving together 😊

Everything you said is kinda right. I’ve been checkin’ out LKO for a while now. It’s getting better compared to before, but the railways in Lucknow ain’t getting enough political attention to really make big changes to the yard, so folks outside don’t see much improvement. We got issues like no extra entry/exit tracks, old interlockings, too many pointless crossings, not enough platforms, a freight yard, and trains being controlled kinda badly too. You probably know that Moradabad Div runs the trains right after Alamnagar to MB. They need to fix that. I think LKO Div should control trains closer to Shahjahanpur, or at least up to Hardoi. Just so everyone knows, there are some improvements, but they're slow. Recently, there’s two-way signaling from LKO to stops like MKG, AMG, UTR. They’re building extra entry/exit tracks from Dilkusha Cabin to LKO. The 3rd/4th line work is going full speed from Barabanki to Malhaur. The RRI building's been done for years. Platform lengths got bumped to 600m except for maybe PF4/5. There’s a big VB Maintenance Depot being built, but it doesn’t really affect train management. There’s talk of a new platform with cabway under LKO NR. Soon, I think there could be some big traffic changes from LKO to bypasses like Utraitia-Transport Nagar-Alamnagar or Aishbagh-Manaknagar. Utraitia’s being worked on in the AmritBharat Scheme. Alamnagar’s turning into a future-ready satellite station. Every time we hit LKO, we notice odd parallel train departures and arrivals that weren't common before. Trains are speeding nicely in the yard when they leave or arrive. Things are looking good. To wrap it up, LKO ain’t like PRYJ or BSB. That’s unfair. Varanasi's getting a lot of political love, PRYJ deals with major routes, but LKO doesn’t have any of that big route action, and it ain't got that strong political rep like Mr. Dubey from Godda. Plus, NR's got the tough job of developing Ayodhya. A tiny mistake, and you’ll see top officials getting shifted from LKO right after the PM visits AY. There’s a lot going on in LKO NR that might be slowing down progress in the yard. Just think about how AY is booming while LKO stays the same. The zonal fights are intense. NER and NR don’t play nice together. But we’re still hopeful for a better LKO real soon with some small changes leading to the big yard revamp. Glad you brought up the issues LKO’s dealing with. We’ll all watch LKO grow together.

Sab kuch jo tumne yahan bola hai woh kuch had tak sahi hai. Main bas yeh kehna chahta hoon ki maine LKO ko bohot saalon se dekha hai. Pehle se behtar hota ja raha hai lekin Lucknow ki railways ko sahi political focus ki kami hai jo zaroori hai kuch bada step lene ke liye yard ko badalna, toh logon ko bahar se kuch khaas behtar nahi lag raha. Masle jaise chaar entry/exit lines ki kami, purani interlockings, bekar ke point aur crossings, PFs ki kami, freight yard, aur kuch had tak trains ka laggy control bhi hai. Tumhe pata hoga ki Moradabad Div train ko Alamnagar ke baad control karta hai. Isko theek karna padega. Mujhe lagta hai LKO Div ko Shahjahanpur ke aas-paas kahin train control karni chahiye aur agar nahi toh kam se kam Hardoi tak toh pakka. Sab ko pata hona chahiye ki behtar hota dikh raha hai halanki dheere se. Abhi recently do tarfa signaling hai LKO se penultimate halts jaise MKG, AMG, UTR tak. Chaar entry/exit lines Dilkusha Cabin se LKO tak ban rahe hain. Teesri/Chouthi line ki construction Barabanki se Malhaur tak tezi se chal rahi hai. RRI building ki construction saalon se complete hai. PFs ki lambai 600m tak badh gayi hai, mujhe lagta hai PF4/5 ke alawa. Waha ek bada VB Maintenance Depot ban raha hai (halanke iska traffic management se koi lena dena nahi hai). Media mein LKO NR ke niche cabway ke saath ek PF ke bare mein news hai. Bahut jaldi, mujhe lagta hai LKO se dusre bypasses par traffic mein bada badlav dekhne ko milega chahe wo Utraitia-Transport Nagar-Alamnagar ho ya Aishbagh-Manaknagar. Utraitia AmritBharat Scheme mein develop ho raha hai. Alamnagar ab ek future capable satellite station ban gaya hai. Jab bhi hum LKO jaate hain, humein parallel departures aur arrivals dekhne ko milte hain jo pehle LKO mein rare the. Trains yard mein achhi speed se chalte hain jab wo nikalte ya aate hain. Signs ache hain. Ant mein, LKO ka comparison dusre shehron jaise PRYJ ya BSB se nahi karna chahiye. Yeh bhi nafrat hai. Haal hi mein Varanasi par zordaar political focus hai, PRYJ IRs ka major trunk route sambhalte hain lekin LKO ke paas koi trunk route nahi hai aur na hi Godda ke MP Mr. Dubey jaisa dynamic political representation hai. NR ko Ayodhya ko develop karna bhi bada kaam hai. Thoda sa mistake hua toh tum dekhoge LKO se top official transfer ho jayega bas PM ke AY visit ke baad. LKO NR mein bohot saari cheezein chal rahi hain jo ho sakta hai LKO Yard mein dheere progress ka wajah ho. Socho AY kaise develop hua jabki LKO wahi ka wahi hai. Zonal wars bhi sabse upar hai. NER aur NR kabhi ek dusre ke saath cooperative nahi dikhte. Phir bhi hum behtar LKO ki ummeed kar rahe hain khaas kar bahut hi jaldi, choti-moti improvements laaye. Achha laga tumne LKO ke issues ke bare mein kuch likha. Hum sab milkar LKO ko evolve hote dekhenge.

@6166680-26 @AkashLKO~

While I agree to most points, but talking about LKO/NR, I'm referring to the zone in its entirety, not the station itself.

NR definitely works to address the issues, but only after it's too late to swiftly handle the situation. It's not about political will, BSB is the main station of PM's constituency. And they still haven't figured out how to manage the traffic smoothly, even after the yard remodeling. They've created more issues than they've addressed.
