Six hours! I thought this was Amar Ujala being Amar Ujala, but this might not be too far fetched. Consider: at six fewer hours, this would cover the run in ten hours at an average speed of 140. At five fewer hours, it would be a comfortable 128, which I can actually see this making with the erstwhile stops of 09004, even with the "slow" section post Virar.
At eleven hours, this would still be faster than any comparable train for this length of run (though I shudder to think how...
more... it will impact other trains' timetable). This should be exciting!
please wait...Translate to EnglishSix hours, dude! I thought this Amar Ujala thing was just Amar Ujala exaggerating, but damn, this might actually be true. Check this out: if they cut it down by six hours, it would take only ten hours to cover the distance at an average speed of 140. And if they cut it down by five hours, it would be a smooth ride at 128, which I can totally imagine happening with the previous stops of 09004, even with the "slow" part after Virar.
If it takes eleven hours, it would still be faster than any other train doing a similar distance (although I can't even imagine what chaos it'll cause with the other trains' schedules). Man, this is gonna be so damn exciting!
please wait...Translate to HindiChhah ghante! Maine socha yeh toh Amar Ujala ki tarah hi hai, lekin shayad yeh itna bhi lamba na ho. Soch: chhe ghante kam hone par, yeh dus ghante mein 140 ki average speed par complete ho jayega. Panch ghante kam hone par, yeh aaram se 128 ki speed par hona chahiye, jise main purane 09004 ke rukne ke saath dekh sakta hoon, "slow" section post Virar ke baad bhi.
Gyarah ghante mein, yeh ab bhi is route ki kisi bhi train se tez rahegi (haan, dusri trains ke time table par kya asar hoga, uska sochkar dil dhadkta hai). Yeh toh exciting hoga!
