Many present and past members of ZRUCC, DRUCC and SRUCC Mumbai, and members of Mumbai Suburban Rail Passengers Association requested to the Railway Board to consider the following suggestions for increase in the passenger revenue without substantial capital investment in the budget which ultimately benefits the railways and to the passengers:
1. Continuation of introduced Holiday Special Train between Pune and New Delhi:
A Holiday Special Rajdhani Express [similar to Rajdhani Express between Mumbai and New Delhi/Hajarat Nizamuddin (H.NZM)] between Pune to New Delhi (H.NZM) was introduced daily during the Diwali festival in October 2008 which was not halting at Kalyan Junction.
This train was introduced having 14 coaches and not halting at Kalyan Junction, depriving the
passengers of Kalyan and surrounding area who wish to go to New Delhi. They had to go to Mumbai Central wasting their precious time, energy and money in the period it used to run.
It appears that the passengers from this vast Urban Agglomeration (Mumbai Metroplitan Region-called as MMR in short), having five Provincial Municipal Corporations of 'A' class under Acts of Maharashtra State, wishing to board this Holiday Special Rajdhani Express at Kalyan Junction, were not taken into consideration for reasons best known to you.
Moreover Kalyan is a Taluka (Tahasil) Place in Thane District, Maharashtra State, having a large suburban floating population of nearly 12 lakhs, (using rail conveyance is their prime mode of transport to Mumbai and other cities).
There is a great need to have such a train to serve passengers to New Delhi from this region.
"Kalyan Junction on Central Railway is one of the oldest junction and has the unique facilities of going to any region of India." Hence we request you to reintroduce this holiday special train again, and make it regular if possible.
2. Re-Introduction of Holiday Special train between Mumbai CST and Pune:
A Holiday Special train between Mumbai CST and Pune was introduced between Mumbai and Pune for quite a long time (in decades), departing from Mumbai CST at 0600 hrs. and arriving at Pune on 1000 hrs. On its return journey, departing from Pune at 1430 and arrival at Mumbai, CST was 1830 hrs.
This train used to run from the years 1965, through 1990 for a period of nearly 25 years, during summer and Christmas Vacations, Ganapati and Diwali festivals and was popular and convenient. It was also a good revenue collector to the railways.
It was stopped without giving valid reasons, and the passengers were forced to adopt other means of transport between Mumbai and Pune, one city being the state capital and the other being metro city.
Public request is that introduce it again considering the passenger traffic between these two metro cities has quadrupled. The timings can be appropriately fixed in consultation with all the user associations.
He requested to consider all the above three suggestions for the following reasons:
(a) The rail passenger traffic has grown manifold between Mumbai, State Capital of Maharashtra, Kalyan Junction, and these metropolitan cities, Pune and Indore with national Capital, New Delhi.
(b) The revenue collection from passengers has been growing very rapidly and presently one has to stand in the queue for minimum 30 minutes in rush hours to get the train ticket though there are many ticket windows at Kalyan Junction.
(c) If implemented, the passengers using these trains will be thousands in a day and their physical and monetary expenses, efforts and precious time will be saved by 100%.
(d) The revenue collection of Central Railway at Kalyan Junction will go up in leaps and bounds without investing much.
Our requests, we hope will not cost much to railways since they are genuine, user friendly, revenue generation. (Except introduction of Pune-New Delhi Rajdhani Express, Pune-Mumbai Holiday Special Express and making Pune-Indore daily train all our requests are only Halt at Kalyan Junction for Mumbai-Pune super Fast Express). These trains have sufficient running timeand by giving halt at Kalyan Junctionthere will be no loss of time since the catenary overhead line is going to be made AC instead od AC/DC. Enhancement of weekly frequency of 9311/9312 Pune –Indore Express from 3 days in a week to 7 days (Daily).
This train is very useful for the passengers of three states, viz., Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat. It goes always full in reservation category. It may please be made daily.
Request for giving a permanent halt at Kalyan Junction for Holiday Special train (similar to Rajdhani Express) between Pune to New Delhi (Hajarat Nizamuddin) as well as other regular Mumbai CST-Pune Super Fast trains, viz., To Mumbai-Pune Intercity, Pragati, Deccan Queen Express Trains.
This request is pending for quite a long time with the Railway Board.
As mentioned above the passenger traffic between Kalyan and Pune has increased exponentially, there are no direct trains in the afternoon between Mumbai and Pune only. The users has to go to Karjat and board these train wasting their precious time and efforts.
We would like to suggest you henceforth if you consider to introduce any Mail/Express train going through Kalyan Junction, we promise to help.
