of Durantos under NR: 4 pairs.
NR durantos running with IC rakes: Only 1. Pune Duranto
Same is the story with this train. It started 6 years back. The rake is very very old but the speed at which this runs is very aggressive.
Now you tell me who will get under this excuse of NR that the "rake upgradation process is underway and as soon as rakes are procured, trains will be upgraded."
From past 15 years a train (of premier most category rajdhani) is running, but not got best class rakes whereas many ordinary m/e and normal sf trains which started after it, got LHB rakes.
Isn't this sheer politics or something more is present to this pathetic set up of our IR ?
Govt is dreaming of starting high-speed train and wasting lots of money on this, but still unsuccessful to give the best rakes to the premier most train of country.
