First time I traveled in the kandy morning intercity was way back in 1990 and at that time, it only stopped at peradeniya. Those days no 3rd class carriages were available and left Colombo at 6:55 and arrived at Kandy sharp at 9:30 most of the days. It started to stop at Gampaha after the 1994 elections. It’s sad the current state of the train
@TheEpicTrainChannel7 ай бұрын
95% of the time, this train runs to the scheduled time. This particular day, there was a signal failure in Peradeniya and it was halted there for a long time, thats what caused the delay. Unless there is a signal malfunction, engine breakdown or wheel slipping it reaches Kandy on time.

I have traveled on this train for a long time and usually, it doesn't get late for more than 10-15 minutes. I guess it's an unusual issue this time though...
@TheEpicTrainChannel Жыл бұрын
Yes quite true, when I travelled on it the latest it got was 22 minutes. This day, my aunt came to Kandy in the ICE and she said that it had stopped in Peradeniya for a long time... On the 28th of December it arrived at 12:30 PM, almost 3 hours late due to an engine breakdown

@TheEpicTrainChannel2 жыл бұрын
Comfort wise Class S14 is better, yes. But, 1009/1010 ICE's will remain to be hauled by Class M6 engine because all the S14 sets are used for turns. 09/10 ICE's won't run with 2 AFC compartments, but 4. The 3 sets with 4 AFC compartments are all used for turns. Class M6 is much more efficient than S14. I prefer 09/10 ICE to continue to be hauled by beautiful M6 🤩😍
