Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to propose the application of a decision-making tool for performance evaluation of Indian Railway zones. It basically seeks to analyze the effects of various evaluation criteria on the performance of Indian Railways using a combined multi-criteria decision-making approach which employs decision-making trial and evaluation laboratory (DEMATEL) and “VIse Kriterijumska Optimizacija kompromisno Resenje” (VIKOR) methods. Design/methodology/approach – The performance of 16 Indian Railway zones is first evaluated using DEMATEL method which addresses the inter-relationships between different criteria with the aid of a relationship structure. The VIKOR method which is a compromise ranking approach is then adopted to rank those candidate railway zones. Pareto analysis is also carried out to identify the benchmark railway zones for the under/poor performers so as to improve their operational excellence. Findings – A numerical example from Indian Railways is illustrated and solved for better understanding of the integrated decision-making tool in which the relevant information for the considered railway zones with respect to different evaluation criteria are collected from various websites and Indian Railways annual statistical report. Western and North-Eastern zones, respectively, take the first and the last positions in the derived ranking list. The relevance of selecting different performance indices/evaluation criteria is also discussed. Practical implications – The application of this integrated methodology would serve as a systematic approach for measurement of the aggregate operational performance of Indian Railway zones so as to gain valuable academic and practical insights. It is also expected to provide an insightful guidance to the railway administrators in taking valuable strategic decisions in promoting the service of Indian Railways. Originality/value – The integrated DEMATEL-VIKOR method is conceptually simple and easily comprehensible which can consider numerous attributes simultaneously. This paper enables the readers to gain some valuable inputs from a managerial perspective for Indian Railways to formulate strategies for its zones to foster better performance.

Abstract:
Indian railway is a popular mode of transport in India. It provides comfortable journey to every class of people. It is very helpful in transferring heavy & large materials like jute, cement, petroleum etc. from one part of the country to another part. It is the world’s largest government-owned monopoly, annually carrying passenger numbers that surpass the global population. It is world’s fourth largest rail network after the U.S.A., China, and Russia, and is managed by a separate Ministry of Railways. The operating ratios have consistently been around 90% in the past several years, indicating that that the capability to generate operational surplus is low. Further, its expenditure on staff and their pensions has been increasing. Consequently, capacity growth is increasingly being funded through borrowings, which threatens to further worsen the financial situation. Thus, Railway services in India are often perceived as being inefficient and unsatisfactory. This paper shows a review of assets and liabilities of Indian Railways. This paper is focused on total assets and total liabilities of Indian Railway. The study is entirely based on secondary data that is from annual reports of Indian railway. Share capital, Reserve and Surplus, Current liabilities, Current Assets and Fixed Assets are mentioned. The study covers the period of seventeen years (from year 2005 to year 2021) and discusses ups and downs within this area.

Abstract:
Indian Railways is the largest railway network in Asia. With a modest beginning in India on April 16, 1853, when the first wheels rolled on rails from Bombay to Thane, the Indian Railways has emerged today as the main vehicle for socio-economic development of the country. Some of the services provided by Indian Railways are freight services, parcel carrier and catering, tourism services and other related services owned by the Government of India. Indian Railways is the largest railway network in Asia. With 1.3 million employees, it is the largest employer in the organized sector in India. The main objective of this study is to analyse the passenger satisfaction and problems regarding the service provided by the Indian railways. Primary data were collected by interviewing 75 passengers of Rail transport in Tirunelveli with a specially prepared interview schedule. The researcher has applied Simple Percentage analysis, Weighted Average and one sample t- test with the help of SPSS. It is observed from the study that the sample group mainly consists of female respondents from the age group of 20-40. Most of the respondents are unmarried and graduates and are living in urban area. Most of the respondents are students and they prefer train travel because of comforts. Passengers are highly satisfied of A/C class fare. If the fare is fixed on the basis of distance, the passengers will be more satisfied.

Abstract:
Job satisfaction of employees is considered as one of the important factors for improving the organizational goals. The Indian railway is similar to the attempt to increase employee job satisfaction. In this regard, human resource management practices can have a critical role. This study focused on problems in working environment and various welfare activities in Indian railways. Moreover, this research attempted to examine the variables on job satisfaction separately. The total 354 collected data from Salem railway division of southern railways have been tested and analyzed by one way ANOVA Analysis.

Abstract:
AbstractDid colonial policies in India deliver excessive returns to British investors? We answer this question using annual data on Indian securities trading on the London Stock Exchange. We present new series on market capitalization, capital gains, dividend yields, and total returns of railway securities from 1880 to 1929. The average annual total return on the largest and most important Indian railway securities was 3.7%. These returns were not excessive by any financial standard. Indeed, they were lower than the return on railway securities in North America, Latin America, and Asia. We also undertake an event study analysis to assess whether Indian railways significantly benefited British investors. When the Government of India purchased large positions in the private railway companies between 1880 and 1910, there were opportunities for profit making. However, we find no evidence of abnormal investor returns in the years leading to the purchase of railway companies. Broadly our findings call into question the extractive nature of colonial railway policy.

Abstract:
The Indian Railways Reservation System (IRRS) is one of the world’s busiest reservation systems of railway tickets. Recently, the COVID-19 pandemic situation has severely impacted the Indian Railway’s (IR) transportation, which eventually has enforced the IR to alter the passenger reservation system. This research attempts to evaluate and analyse the factors that modify the IRRS. In this research, a rough set-based Data Mining Scaffolding (DMS) has been proposed. Here, the relevant preferential information related to the IRRS is managed by introducing a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM), where a decision-maker (DM) can make a decision based on several decision rules. The effectiveness of the proposed DMS is explained by gathering realistic data of 26 trains, which run between railway stations of two metro cities of India during the COVID-19 pandemic period.

Abstract: In today’s fast paced and competitive world, India is home to one of the world’s largest railway networks. According to statistical facts, approximately 22 million passengers travel via trains every day. A majority of them are on various social networking site including Twitter, adding to this, more than 200 million users are active daily on this application, tweeting more than 500 million tweets every day, out of them, at least 600 are based on the sole topic of complaining about railways, about 5% are suggestions and etc. To help out the Indian Railway Ministry to quickly classify and/or clarify the tweets as soon as possible and in a much more efficient manner, we would provide a solution by helping them classify the types of posts such as if it is a complaint, or just feedback, or some other type. Since almost everyone on this planet wishes to get a swift and quick response for any query they have, this application would allow the whole team behind the scenes to efficiently handle all the tweets, give a response to the posts, and allows them enough time to get working on an issue.

Abstract:
The present study aims to assess the intangible attributes of the service that have an impact on customer satisfaction. The Intangible attributes attached to the service, are difficult to determine. The Indian Railway network is one of the largest railway networks in the world. It is spread over 115,000 km having 21,617 passenger trains carrying 23 million passengers every day. In terms of revenue generation, it is a major contributor to the Indian economy but even then, the service level is very poor as compared to the other parts of the world. Due to increased competition in the modes of transportation, the Service attributes of Indian Railway acts as a strong influencer on Passenger Satisfaction. Indian Railways has a huge potential in terms of economic benefits if their service quality is improved. Various studies have tried to identify the important attributes regarding the Service Quality of Indian Railway. The SERVQUAL model provided important insights into the service attributes. The study attempts to identify the gap that exists in the service level, that is, service offered by the Indian Railway and expectation of the customers. In the study, only internal aspects like facilities (attributes) which make the journey comfortable and the absence of these attributes makes the passengers’ journey uncomfortable are included. The result indicates that there exists a considerable gap in Reliability and Assurance dimensions of Railway service quality and the most important factors determining satisfaction of passengers are basic facilities, safety and security, cleanliness and employee behaviour towards passengers.

Abstract:
“The reservation system of the Indian Railways is an enormous database system dealing with about millions of passengers everyday. Many of these passengers travel with a reservation however a lot more travel with unreserved tickets. In this measureless system, it is an extraordinary task to competently handle this data, which is the basic demand of the management. The problems with the existing scenario are Corruption, User Authentication Security Issues, Over population, Inefficient Railway Management. This paper presents an approach to tackle these problems in a much efficient manner. In case of Indian Railways, detailed passenger data is handled for reservations and in order to provide fast and efficient services, the data has to be processed and verified at a fast pace. For the Indian railways, enhancing the existent system with ADHAAR Card Identification will reduce manual intervention to a great extent. Also the verification of the passengers would be comprehensive and safe. The ADHAAR Card Based railway System will handle the passenger data more effectively and easily”.

Abstract:
The Indian Railways have been widely chastised for dumping human waste on railway tracks, which pollutes the environment and makes human life difficult. Indian Railways are working hard to solve this problem by developing environmentally friendly toilet facilities. The bio toilets were adopted by the Indian Railways to handle this problem in an environmentally friendly manner. However, due to the failure of these bio-digesters for a variety of causes, new problems have arisen, so this paper outlines the issues raised by bio-toilets and how to address them, which satisfies the major objective of Swaccha Bharat Abhiyan.

Abstract:
This paper examines how the development of the railway-telegraph technological complex impacted the tenuous relationship between the rulers and those they ruled; the British and the Indians. Through the experience of building and operating the railway, Indians came to understand the railway and telegraph as their own technologies well before the eventual handover of control over the networks from the British. The reasons behind the British desire to retain their grasp over the networks included profit, power, and orientalist notions of socially advancing Indians, all at the expense of Indian taxpayers. This arrangement was problematic and ultimately facilitated the Raj's undoing, while revealing certain realities of British imperial rule.

Abstract:
Cities are a way of life. They are an amalgamation of cultural background and urbanism, which determine the quality of life, environmental sustainability, social behavior and economic well-being. Since the ancient times, cities have been the way to define the growth and development. The development of the cities depended upon availability of resources for a better livelihood and the way humans utilize the resources. Even today as cities develop, people hope for better living conditions. Urbanism plays a major role in the development of cities, being a combination of cultural and urban living. Urbanism has brought various downfalls along with progress. Has urbanism made development a monotonous concept? These days, cities are urbanizing at a fast rate not considering their future consequences. Having lived in Mumbai, I have seen it grow into a megacity. The countless problems that urbanism has brought to accommodate the massive amount of people migrating into the city has affected the quality of life of people immensely. However, is it for the better or worse? People all over the country want to have a piece of Mumbai, the city of dreams. This growth in the population has overpowered the city. Mumbai is famous for its railway system. It is the lifeline of the city. However, due to the amount of people using this system, the travel is more of a chaos. Every railway station has a main access road filled with hawkers and commercial storefronts. People in Mumbai are always in a rush, so these hawkers and commercial stores are a necessity to their daily life. People shop for their daily necessities while returning home to save time. However, these streets are extremely chaotic and crowded. My thesis focuses on how this space can be utilized by three consumers - the traveler, the shopper and the one who does both. It aims to decongest this main street and make travelling by local trains convenient. The site I have chosen is located in the heart of Mumbai city and is one of the most important railway station on the Western Suburban railway system. It is known as Dadar railway station. More than 500,000 people use this railway station daily. With the maximum number of incoming pedestrian traffic, my design can be used as an example for other railway stations throughout Mumbai.

Abstract:
This thesis examines how British travellers experienced the Indian climate and landscape in, from and through three vehicles: the palanquin, the elephant and the railway. Much historical study has approached Western experiences of tropical nature with what this thesis calls a 'sedentary perspective'; that is, by studying the individuals, the sites and the representational practices connected with observant travel. The most obvious aspect of such travel – the mobility of soldiers, merchants, administrators and tourists – has been comparatively neglected. Travel in India, rather than merely connecting events across the expanse of the journey, was a significant space of experience and the mode by which travellers encountered their surroundings. This thesis argues that specific mobilities engendered distinct relations between the perceiving subject and the environment perceived. Means of transport – the palanquin, elephant and railway – were also means of observation, shaping the experience of landscape, ideas of tropical nature and the traveller as subject.

Abstract:
This study is about Joseph Samuel Frithiof Stephens (1841–1934) and how he as a Scandinavian contractor acquired an economic fortune in the colonial India. The fortune was used for the acquisition of the mill property Huseby Bruk in Småland and also contributed to the Stephens family's strategy of advancing in the then Danish bourgeois class establishment. The study aims to present an individual actor's opportunities to achieve financial success through access to non-financial capital forms. Social capital in the form of important social relations and cultural capital in the form of information, skills, etc., can be used for transformation into economic capital. The identification and analysis of the personal networks that occurred in Joseph's career determines the importance of family networks and professional networks for access to the various alternative forms of capital. Joseph's career in British India in the 1850s and 60s was surrounded by the colonial power context linked to global capitalist progression and characterized by civilization ambitions, technological transfer and dominance. The aftermath of the Revolt 1857–1858 opened the playing field for wealth-seeking risk-takers from Europe. The power structures previously maintained by the East India Company were gradually replaced by the British central power apparatus. The new power relations established a new administration and altered social institutions in the emerging crown colony. The Indian railways became a significant element in the colonial intervention and consisted of trunk lines that crossed the subcontinent. The used source material in the form of private letters, diaries, business correspondence and more, constitutes the research basis for the studies, and are included in the India-related material stored in the Huseby Archives at Linnaeus University in Växjö, Sweden. The results of the study show that network contacts and access to alternative forms of capital became crucial success factors for Joseph Stephen's career and wealth accumulation. The networks were linked to both the private and traditional spheres as well as to the professional and rational spheres and sometimes seemed cross-border. The study has further demonstrated the structures, colonial thought patterns and hierarchies that the individual actor was actively related to, and that affected the often-strained everyday life of the contractor.

Abstract:
The objective of this paper is to apply a methodology developed for effective implementation of life cycle costing (LCC) in design and procurement of repairable products/systems to railway wagons. From its origin in defense equipment in US in 1960s, the application of life cycle cost concept has now been extended to other areas of private and public sectors too. This is because the customers are now considering not only the initial product costs but also the cost implications associated with the entire life span of a product. This emerging trend in global markets is gradually forcing the product manufacturers to estimate and optimize the product LCC with reference to performance, safety, reliability (R), and maintainability (M). The life cycle cost of a repairable system is closely coupled to its reliability and maintainability and therefore a careful consideration to the R & M parameters in the product design stage is quite essential from the LCC viewpoint. Taking into consideration these aspects a generalized modeling methodology has been proposed to estimate the life cycle cost of repairable products based on R & M principles. Life cycle costing in railway industry has traditionally been focused on the prediction of investment of railway vehicle. But, today’s mass transit market has rapidly been changed and the suppliers are now forced to treat the LCC of entire railway system. Indian railways are the principle mode of transport for raw materials for steel plants, finished steel from steel plants, coal, oil, iron, cement, petroleum products, fertilizers and food grains in India. To serve this purpose BOXN wagons are used by Indian railways. The BOXN wagons typically have a life span of 35 years and being a repairable system experience multiple failures over their life span. In this paper, a generalized model for LCC of repairable products has been proposed and is applied to BOXN wagon of Indian railways and the results obtained are presented. The methodology presented herein is expected to provide some useful guidelines to the railway industry to predict and analyze the life cycle cost of railway vehicles.

Abstract:
Enormous growth of population has been observed in recent years and the number of passengers is traveling by the Indian railway has been increased significantly during the pilgrim season due to rapid urbanization. Pedestrian traffic is an important aspect of traffic handled by the Indian railways, because of competitive tariffs with other modes of transports, the comfort of travel, and speed of connectivity. The present study is carried out in the Kerala state railway stations under the categories of A1(NSG2), and A (NSG3) which has the highest annual passenger of boarding and alighting are recorded. Pedestrian flows are taken with the help of recorded video graphic footage on the railway station premises. The studies carried out in the pedestrian parameters and estimate the capacity of pedestrian flow involve a variety of pedestrians such as era, sexuality, belongings carried by the pedestrian, schedule of a train as well at entry and exit passageway of stairways with the help of Indo-HCM 2017 and NFPA 130, 2020 also to analyses the level of service of a pedestrian with the fundamental diagrams of the pedestrian flow vs speed, speed vs density, flow vs density, and space vs speed are developed. The discoveries of this study are expected to be fruitful for civic bodies, railway protection force, policymakers, the public, and other stakeholders to design a solution working on the idea of world elegance railway stations.

Abstract:
The railway system, one of the backbones of transportation systems in many countries is becoming more and more complex. It plays increasingly significant role in economic development of the country. Therefore, it becomes necessary to ensure that it operates effectively, efficiently and safely. To achieve that railway industries have to move from old traditional manual work, mechanization and electronic usage to intelligent transportation system (ITS). The transformation of railway transportation to railway intelligent transportation system (RITS) can be a core stratagem to keep and improve the competivity from other modes of transportation. Rapid development of emerging technologies such as communication and computing, intelligent system, technological development of railway industries along with 36,000 kilometers (kms) of laid optical fiber cable make it feasible for Indian Railway (IR) to develop and design RITS. This new generation of railway transportation with higher speed, higher performance and zero tolerance for safety may be able to meet the challenges beyond IR vision 2020. The use of RITS architecture encourages structured development and integration of ITS systems that leads to maximization of benefits by minimizing redundancies and maximizing capabilities. This paper presents a distributed framework for a multi-layered RITS architecture that can be designed for integrating generated information. It also addresses the design issues and challenges in the IR scenario.

Abstract:
<p>A new Tower Vertical Lift bridge on Pamban Island (India) replaces the existing “Scherzer” Rolling Bascule bridge within the railway line that connects the island to the Indian subcontinent across the Palk Strait. The lift span of the new bridge consists of a 77.5 m simply supported structure composed of two lateral steel Warren trusses of variable depth and a platform 10.3 m wide, holding two railway lines. The lift movement of the bridge is carried out through two sets of electromechanical systems placed in two towers 40 m high, located at the ends of the lift span, which hold the machinery in their upper part. The choice of this system responds to the criteria of reliability and robustness. Also, the high incidence of marine corrosion in the bridge location has been decisive in the design. The existing bridge is a national icon in South India; therefore, the aesthetic has been a fundamental condition.</p>

Abstract:
India’s urbanization rate has increased from 26% in 1991 to 35% in 2021, and it is expected to reach 41% by 2030 (World Bank 2022). In response to this, as the backbone of its growing economy, the country’s infrastructure development, particularly transportation development, has been heavily emphasized. The railway sector will see an investment of $715.41 billion by 2030. Along with a series of supporting government policies, an opportunity to expand the high-speed rail (HSR) network has been presented in India. From the viewpoint of the government, HSR is an effective tool to address the surge in travel demand because of its mass transportation, high speed, and high energy efficiency (Suzuki et al. 2022). Besides, HSR projects bring about a ripple effect on the Indian economy by generating local employment opportunities, catalyzing the steel and cement sector and galvanizing AatmaNirbhar Bharat (an initiative by the Government of India to make the country self-reliant) through the indigenization of technology (National High Speed Rail Corporation Limited 2022). From the perspective of communities and individuals, HSR improves their quality of life by offering a faster and safer transportation option for work and travel.
