Katni- Chopan Down passenger No.1513 is generally starts at 10.15 am every day from katni. But reaching up to Singraulli it became late by 4 to 5 hrs. almost on regular basis. The main reason behind it is crossing the up side shakti punj express, Passenger and so many goods train as well as slow action taken by the Railway authority and not optimizing the Railway Track for proper utilization in this route.
Generally the down passenger train No. 1513 is being stopped on each platform by 1 to 2 hrs. and crossing the goods train particularly at Bargawa station & Khanna Banjari Station. Passengers are suffering a lot, the railway authority should prefer not to detain the passenger train more. In place of this goods train must be stopped and crossing the passenger train.
It will be clear if higher authority examine the train reaching time at Singaruli & Chopan for a month with reasons. Regularly it reaches to Singrauli late never maintaining its time due to above reasons.
Note : Focus should be given on Passenger train for right departure from each &
every station to satisfy the customer. Attached the complain

katni chopan passenger is the worst train in india i think so because railway authority are no bother about its timing. this train is always running late 4 to5hrs regularly and condition of train is very very shaby and there is no TT for viewing ticket from passengers. overall this train is like a bullakcart.
