Laloo's 'Chattanooga choo chhoo'! Indian railway

Worn out coaches, torn away sheets and virtually non-existent size
of pillow in A/C sleeper coaches, not even drinking water
available in AC coaches, dirty railway stations, late running
trains( always wrong information is given by enquiry guys despite
mobile technology available), hot axles and I can keep on counting
in praise the great service and operational capability claimed by
railways under Lalloo. If he can run railways well I can run
Boeing company still better. Ha Ha!The USA guys from Harvard come
rushing , wondering how can this skeleton acquire healthy muscles.
It is wonder. Is not it?
1.5 million employees, lot of bribes passed in hands of railway
employees purchasing goods(as high as 40%)Visit their homes
please, worn out over-due thousands of kilometers of railway
tracks. These all above are reality of Indian Railways. Almost 40
employees per km of track one of highest in world, shows
productivity and efficiency of Indian railwaymen. Organised union
and also ST/SC employee union separately for social justice, huge
pay packets and blind loot and blackmail by coolies on Railway
platforms since Amitabh's coolie was released. Ha!
That is why government is not privatising it or at least giving
autonomy by Breaking Railways into 7-8 zonal companies in private
Public partnership with 51% with private fellows.
More employees and army men travel in AC coaches on some routes
than paying passengers. Remember One Mr Ganguli the the Chairman
of Railway Board , whose saloon was detached from train on the
platform on order of Indira Gandhi Govt.
Increasing axle load is a dangerous proposition without proper
maintenance and good rail lines. By increase in price of fuel,
road transport got costly giving direct complementary bounty to
railways.
Railways have of course modernised a bit specially ticketing
system but not because of laloo. It was old project.
This euphoria is misplaced. Indian Railways must face
competition.
In Roadways also there is rampant corruption and mismanagement. So
all Road transport organisations in all States should be broken in
2-3 companies each depending on size of state and handed to
private sector ,government retaining 49% share on lines of Maruti
until recently(in a PPP model).
Let a few trains start in Pvt. Sector like airlines. Why not?If
Garib Rath can be run by Indian rail.
Is Laloo and Co. afraid. Where our sweet Man Mohan, great
economist and champion of privatisation and brand ambassador of
world bank?

What is energy efficiency of Railways and just visit there waiting
rooms. They are hellish. You never get R/R why?

To get bigger picture why not compare metrics with US railway
companies' performance. Do they even have driver in engine?What is
haulage in a goods train? How much time it takes to decant(unload
the train)?.

When you are a monopoly you can do anything and when you are
government monopoly you can even shield the figures in balance
sheets.'kaun poochh sakta hai bhai. Singh ke raj mein a la
Sholay?.Laloo ki rail chal rahi hai chhuk chhuk. When it will
reach station no one knows even Station master sahib. So rush to
railway station and wait there for 3 hrs. Don't take chance.
