Recently South Central Railway has taken Some steps to increase the Coconada rush like Providing an end to end Quota For Gowthami express and reducing the quota of rajamundary for gowthami express and still Some steps to be taken by South central railway like providing haltings like SLO,KVR, NDD and extending this coconada express upto Lingampally and providing Haltings like Begumpet , Nature cure hosptial , sanathnagar, hitec city , hafizpet For this train. so that People will prefer this train because of boarding this train easy and reaching homes easily at hyderabad instead of waiting for MMTS train for 30min (OR) more than that

The reason for decreasing Gautami's quota to RJY was something different.
There is a proposal to start a tri-weekly to SC from RJY and SCR is just monitoring the occupancy levels. Regarding 12776, it has to reach Akiveedu after 4.30 & BVRT at 5am and this would undoubtedly be an addendum. As said already, this train is seeing last minute bookings. Secondly, i don't think the occupancy levels will increase by adding KVR & NDD stops to Cocanada! Mind you that RJY is just 15/40 minutes (by road) from KVR/NDD respectively!

I always see this train reaching Kakinada Town at right time or 5-10 minutes early, though it traverse single line section. Thanks to slack provided between BZA & BVRT. Regarding 12775, it generally reaches BZA with a delay of 10 minutes. I don't have idea about BZA-SC!

A triweekly express is Good between SC and RJY. I dont think in order to montior the occupancy levels of RJY they reduce Gowthami express . Because recently Simhapuri express was reduce the Quota of Ongole and more Quota is given for only NLR only. Machilipatanam express was recently reduce quota of BZA and made Full Quota From Gudivada . providing KVR halting is necessary For coconada express because my uncle whose lives in kovvur prefers Gowthami express than Coconada because travelling upto RJY with children and boarding Coconada is some what risky .
