I agree zonal HQ needs to interfere but think otherwise. I'll give examples of SER only. Compare the maintenance of TATA and HTE CDOs. You'll see the difference. "Zameen Aasmaan ka fark hai"

SRC CDO does the maintainance of rakes very poorly, specially the Toilets of coaches of trains of SRC CDO is in very bad condition in almost 80%of coaches.
New depot at Shalimar is getting ready, don't know how will they do because Vande Bharat trains will be started soon and interior cleaning of VB rakes must be good.

SRC maintenance is nearly good for short distance Intercity trains. Never had to travel in long distance trains maintained by SRC except Gitanjali in its ICF days. Had a mixed experience of cleanliness.

Howrah Chennai Jonathan express destination changed to Tirupati when coromondal express is introduced and diverted via Bhinavaram when Guage conversion completed in late 1970s. After HWH yesvantpur express frequency increased to daily its now Tirupati Puri. The number and timings are almost same from the past 60 years 79/80.
