Railway Tickets

Railway Tickets

Presently I am having 13 pending tickets. In one trip, onward journey is by air that is why it is in odd number. If the Railways further increase the booking period, I will be in soup. Ticket for last journey, OH!  No ticket is required for the last journey as it will be a ticketless travel. My latest journey ticket is for the travel from Bangalore to Nizamuddin on 24th October and the earliest is for 25th July from Anand Vihar to Kathgodam.  The booked tickets history of IRCTC shows the latest ticket in the beginning and earliest travel ticket at the bottom. I have to scroll down to see when my next scheduled travel is.  It will be more convenient if the table shows the earliest journey ticket in the beginning as I or for that matter anybody will not be interested to check the date and time of the travel 4 months later. After all common sense is most uncommon. Common sense will not come with age as Railways is 162 year old. People should not take a cue from this and start thinking as to when our great grandfather (or grandmother) is not having common sense, why should we have?

During the next 30 days I have three tour programmes. On 25th July to Kathgodam, 1st August to Mumbai and 16th August to Bangalore. A friend asked me as to why I am travelling so much, my reply was


“For whom the Train runs?”
