Is this running with E-E Electric Loco, without any LC at R?
After commissioning of TIG-R FEDL, ECoR/SCoR needs to finally give this prestigious train the importance it deserves by implementing the following changes:
1) LHB with HOG & Antyodaya GS coaches, LHB SLR instead of EOGs to take care of UR pax
2) Should be speeded up by atleast 30-45 Mins between VSKP-R....
more... Overall minimum of 120 Mins speedup required between VSKP-NZM by giving higher MPS between NGP-NZM.
3) Removal of atleast 10 smaller/redundant halts of the total 19 between VSKP-R. This will be done after introduction of new intercity between VSKP-DURG/KRBA in both directions with similar timings and more halts, which will be actually helpful for the commuting crowd in this route and have higher capacity. Of course it'll also solve the overcrowding issue in this train and ensure comfort for majority of long distance passengers.
