I was Just onboard on 22943 Daund Indore Express yesterday from PUNE to BSR. Yesterday I saw line of 3 trains on a Single main line in between Khandala and Lonavala
1. 11019 CSMT - BBS Konark Express at Lonavala
2. 22732 CSMT - HYB Superfast Express at Lonavala Outer (i. e near Lonvala LC)
3. 12494 NZM - PUNE Darshan AC Superfast Express

at Khandala having its unscheduled halt.

By watching this I was thinking that though there was one bidirectional line (i. e Middle Line) why they didnt utilize this for atleast any one train except for Konark?? i. e Darshan or Hyderabad Express plus due to single train all 2 other trains would also get delayed.
