Is there a price difference if one books in this train b/w LJN-GKP compared to Krishak express for same end to end stations? Either case, my argument as to why this is the superior train for overnight travel between Lucknow and Gorakhpur is firstly, it takes more time [by ~2 hrs], so giving the passenger more time to sleep; secondly, unlike the Krishak which goes to BCY, it terminates at GKP, so a passenger doesn't need to wake up before 0600 hrs only to find his train delayed by an hour and still can't go back to sleep because of the fear of skipping GKP.

Same

for reverse direction, Krishak often comes in late at GKP itself [though it covers the time in between], this train meanwhile starts right at time from source itself.

Re# 6177208-1              
There is a price difference of over ₹100 between the Krishak and Mailani, when booking tickets in 3A and 2A classes between GKP and LJN. If you're booking 3A in Mailani, it might be worth spending an additional ₹100 to book 2A in Krishak.

Typically, Krishak is the preferred choice for passengers traveling overnight between GKP and LJN. When Krishak is fully booked, passengers opt for Mailani, as Krishak is faster and travels through a safer and more well known route.

Krishak, Mailani, and also CPR - GTNR primarily serve passengers traveling from Gorakhpur to Lucknow on overnight basis.

I travelled once in GTNR-CI Express. Since I wasn't able to sleep properly at night, I did see people getting off POST GKP, especially on the Thawe route. I don't think much people got down at GKP due to especially bad timings at GKP.

I'm talking about CPR - GTNR, it's departure time is 1:00 AM @GKP and arrival at around 6:30 in the morning at @GTNR.

It's really not that inconvenient, I've checked the charting of CPR - GTNR quite a few times and found that it had 300+ boarding at GKP (it's really easy to get a ticket in this train too). Although it primarily serves serves the district of Kushinagar (Padrauna, Kaptanganj etc).

I'm not that sure for GTNR - CPR, that train is cancelled today otherwise I would check it's charting. (It arrives 3 in the morning at GKP, but to be fair PPTA - LJN which arrives at LJN at odd timings, runs full too). There's a lot of travel inbetween GKP and LJN/LKO, as GKP lacked many basic facilities in past, people from GKP needed to go to LKO (for example SGPGI) but ever since GKP became a political hotspot, it's getting more focus on its surroundings and people don't need to go to LKO as much as before, like GKP getting AIIMS and other stuff.

Yes, I was able to get a last minute ticket in SL class in this train back in the day.I think it used to start from proper CPR and go to LJN when it was originally introduced.

PPTA-LJN gets pax traveling from GKP bound for LJN? Odd. I assumed mainly folks traveling to Patna would use it.It has a seriously bad arrival time at LJN.

Useful
This train should be named as Lucknow Mail. Reason: it spends 2+ hrs in Lucknow area on both sides and has SIX stops in the city. Even express trains bound for big cities like Delhi make their way out of the city in ~4 - 5 stops. But six stops is absolutely humongous.

On a lighter note, from LJN-MLN, the SL and GN section is full but AC is generally mostly vacant. It is mostly used by loop line passengers on GKP-LJN as an overnight train. I also find it intriguing
...
more...
that the GKP-Barhni-LJN went from being not connected or only connected upto GD via MG and non AC coaches to a train that has 13 AC coaches in such a short span of time. I am curious to know how much higher is the demand for SL class in this train vis a vis AC.

Honestly, I would have preferred 10 AC coaches in this train and augmentation of SL/GN coaches. I am sure that would have helped both the passengers on loop line and also, the daytime passengers on LJN-STP-MLN.

NER is detaching 1AC3,AC 2,AC1st from 15th november in 15009 from GKP, I hope they will add more SL and general coaches considering the demands of MLN bound passengers.
I seriously think there should be only 3-4AC coaches.

Most Metre Gauge trains were faster than their present BG counterparts. IR doing GC in most isolated sections turned out to be a complete waste.
