Ohh just based on passenger amenities definitely NCR Prayagraj div falls behind even Kanpur Central and Prayagraj Jn are now getting decent passenger amenities. If they actually start working on third line they automatically have to redesign and rework all the intermediate stations giving them new looks and amenities just like the whole section of NZM-Agra-Jhansi is getting.
Honestly no one can defeat NER based on station designs, I mean I just saw the pic of station building of Gonda Kutchery and that was absolutely dead gorgeous and funny thing is that...
more... only two trains just halt there and both being passenger, So I can't say anything against NER station building, although last time I did visit like 2 years ago Hathras City station wasn't in the good condition, it was short, with broken benches and lots and lots of stray animals and buildings so close that it felt like you can touch them, how much has the station changed?
Mathura being neglected was only based on that many trains don't halt at Mathura Jn even though it has such a high passenger movement, with even few premium trains getting halt at Mathura it can also bypass Agra Cantt (maybe)
please wait...Translate to HindiOhh, bas passenger amenities ke hisaab se toh NCR Prayagraj bilkul peeche hai, Kanpur Central aur Prayagraj Jn bhi ab decent passenger amenities le rahe hain. Agar yeh log third line pe kaam shuru karte hain, toh unko saare beech ke stations ko naye looks aur amenities dene padege jaise NZM-Agra-Jhansi ka section ho raha hai.
Honestly, NER station designs ke hisaab se koi nahi keh sakta, main Gonda Kutchery station building ki photo dekhi aur woh toh bilkul zabardast thi, aur funny baat yeh hai ki wahan sirf do train rukti hain dono passenger. Toh main NER station building ke khilaf kuch nahi keh sakta, lekin last time jab 2 saal pehle main Hathras City station gaya tha, woh acha haal mein nahi tha, chhota tha, bench tuti hui thi aur bahut saare stray animals the aur buildings itne kareeb the ki aisa lagta tha jaise touch kar sakte ho. Station kitna badal gaya hai?
Mathura ka ignore hona sirf isliye tha kyunki bahut saari trains Mathura Jn pe nahi rukti, jabki yahan passenger movement bahut zyada hai. Agar thodi premium trains bhi Mathura pe rukti, toh shayad Agra Cantt ko bypass kar sakta tha.
