Dear Sir, We can reduce the rush at Railway ticket counters. Let it be possible to get the platform ticket through ATMs using ATM card. Let these platform tickets be valid for 5Hrs.

In the second step we may allow to get general 2nd class ticket also by choosing starting station & destination & date of travel. Railway card is not necessa

Why don't we analysis the purpose of the travel by each individual so that we will be able to find out solution for introducing new trains. If the travel is for govt related and job we can provide the service through with the help of Digital India Program and if the travel is for job then we can provide the support to the state or region for developing the infrastructure for creating the jobs for the youth. This will definitely reduce the travel time of citizens and see reduce in commuters.

All reservations in advanced should be charged advance benefit charges e.g. 60 days advance ticket must be charged 100% more and the days duration less in prorate basis.Refund of these ticket will be as per normal rate and advace charges non refundable. This will controle unwanted advance booking habit and black ticket market. Jenuine traveler will be benifited.

A limit must be built so that people can alone reach the trains platform but they cannot cross the tracks and subways or overbridges lack in most of the suburbans .The directions in a railway station should be as such directed in a way that people cannot use tracks for crossing but only,subways.

The trains ticket available but the sheet not available in train for the passenger. So we are the human, but the Ticket Collector treat as thief or do a crime if the a passenger take a general express train ticket. The General coach is full. Can the passenger travel in sleeper coach. Why the TC charge the sleeper coach to the passenger. The TC is not give the sheet to the passenger. the same train same speed and ticket with travel but railway charges to the passenger.
