I was supposed to travel from Vishakapatnam to Chennai central on 15/2/14 in Gowhathi to Ernakulam express(12508) in Sleeper class and i had the reserved berths. Me and my mom (of age 60 ) reached the station 20 mins earlier of the arrival of the train. On same day train was delayed by 1:30 hours . My problem was like there were no boards on compartments showing the compartment number (like S1 or S2 etc ) and i ran along the platform start to end with my mom who was not able to run, but still i could not find my compartment. I finally could not boarded into the train because of below reasons . To come to chennai by other alternative transports it took one day delay for me.
Problems faced:
1) There were no number boards on compartments to get into correct reserved compartment.
2) Train was loaded with the double the number of people than its actual capacity and no TTE were there to ask them and i was not able to get into some other compartment and go to my compartment because of people.
Let me know whether i am able to file a case against East coast railways . I have captured couple of pictures showing the count of people in train and i have other proofs.
