In my case, few people from the coach were at the door enjoying the skip. I was extremely nervous when my train slowly down to a crawl but it turned to joy as we crossed the station without stopping.
Though Jabalpur has a Garib Rath to Mumbai, it is not that impressive in terms of overall running times. It takes around 16.5 hours, nearly 3.5 hours slower than Duronto. Wouldn't it make it sense to speed this up by a couple of hours? On other days, they could introduce a CSTM-Rewa Superfast on the same slot, thus, JBP will get a daily connection to Mumbai via two trains.
Quite a useful idea Sir, some suggestions from my side here.
Considering the number of Stoppages it has and slot issues in Mumbai, running time is quite ok. Plus Rewa still doesn't have Primary Maintainence Facility so CR would've to take the initiative in Maintainence of the proposed train.
Allahabad Duronto still has some punctuality issues as whenever it incurs any delay, it's not able to cover it up like other Duronto trains probably due to Low MPS, so punctuality wise Jabalpur Garib Rath is still better maybe due to its longer running...

From what I have heard, IGP-ET up-gradation to 120/130 is in full swing, so am hoping that the Duronto will see an increase in MPS within the next year. Let's see what happens. In any case, I would love to see a direct Mumbai-Rewa train. Also, a direct Mumbai-Singrauli-Chopan train or a Mumbai-Howrah train via Singrauli to connect Mumbai with the Katni-Singrauli-Barkakana route.
Thait is my dream too , a train from LTT to bsb/dhn/gaya/hwh via singrauli
