Hi friends
I have a doubt which can be clarified by all seniors here.
Is it possible a train to start from VSKP and go to SGRL (Singrauli) via Ranchi and halt there for 3 hrs and to start again as a new train to SC via Anuppur have a SM there and then go to VSKP. If this has to do as Tri-Weekly how many rakes needed? Is this best to save rakes or to give 2 rakes each to VSKP and SC to run as Tri-Weekly as separate trains? And if
...
more...
my point one is good how many rakes really needed and what will the revenue sharing pattern? Same for return pattern VSKP-SC-SGRL-RNC-VSKP.
Can any one please explain?
Thanks in advance.

Re# 6079261-7              
I am not sure if this plan would work out... VSKP to Singrauli, then Singrauli to SC via ANUP, and then to VSKP.... cause ppl pax would wish to have a return train back to VSKP from Singrauli....
I'd suggest have a plan with RSAs by keeping one place as the key and make the IMGs... and u would need min of 2 rakes to happen....ЁЯСНЁЯСН

They should utilize the speed of GNT TPTY line and give it a faster schedule in that section. Even from SC GNT they can try for a 15 min removal. SR schedule is very tight, giving competition to MAS TVC SF Mail. This is even possible in 27h 45min.

Is this a proposed TT ? Because it will clash with 2 titans of this route right from it's departure from CHZ .... VB and Employee Psudo Shatabdi ...though it's not so aggressive schedule between CHZ-GNT...if they really proposed this TT then it's superb to hear

There are many loops in between to loop the train, TPTY VB will depart SC at around 6:15 and Workers express 5:30 and this Sabari will be leaving at 6:00am from CHZ if VB is behind they might loop sabari somewhere between Nalgonda and Miryalguda. This is the only possibility of operating it as of now by the officials info. The complete TN covers in the night and the early morning in the Kerala.

Grand Trunk Express is truly the lifeline of Many Small towns lying on GT Route.
It provides a fast connection to the national capital Delhi and Chennai to many small stations lying on that route
No doubt it is somewhat slower than Prestigious Tamil Nadu Express but GT Is no less than TN Despite having more halts It is just 2hrs slower than TN Express betwee Chennai and New Delhi with 24 more halts.

GT express to TN express is like comparing and saying Charminar is better than HYD MAS SF express. Deep down we all know, GT is awesome and so is HYD MAS SF express. Some trains gets their prestigious status by name

GT is older than TN and is equally faster with stop (recently speeded up too)

its like sayin Coromandal is awesome and HWH mail is slow train but thats not the case HWH mail is also equally faster as Coromandal but people just dont notice its performance with number of stoppage.

Grand trunk is literally like the grandpa of the MAS NDLS route, it likes to figure out and take it's time to serve all states. Tamilnadu is young adult around the block which just moves at a faster pace.

Great Disagree:Not feasible
This train should be made to run with LHB rake with RSA to Narayanadri SF express.

Train should leave TVC at 06:30 AM to arrive Lingampalli at 10:00 AM -- can leave as Narayanadri at evening at 17:00 PM to arrive at Tirupati around 05:00 AM and PM the whole day and the return train will leave TPTY around 18:00 PM to arrive Lingampalli at 06:00 AM to leave Lingampalli as Sabari express around 13:00 PM to arrive TVC at 16:30 PM with SC at TVC

Train and rake should be handled by SCR TPTY div.

Southern Railway will never introduce any train themselves, They are lazy AF. TVC div and MAS div is good in giving up their train to other zone but wont be energetic enough to take.

Also "Rake transfer" or "running for 3 decades" has nothing to do with zone change. It is going to be prestigious no matter what. MAS SBC mail used to be SR train before they gave it to SWR bangalore. So shifting zone for decade ran trains always happens.

Re# 6078223-27              
Devagiri will RSA with gowthami in some months, freeing up narayanadri. I don't think there is any issue with present RSA, which seems good only. Hope this padmavati/TPTY SC via MPL RC/shabari gets LHB soon. I wonder if Speed up of shabari express is really possible since it is having lot of halts at SR and have to accomodate crossings at single lines in SCR.

Okay speed up has nothing to do with stops - let me give you an example - Rayalseema used to be one of the slowest train from TPTY to HYD deccan once upon a time (SCR railfan should know) , yes they did cut some stops but most stops are still there. Now its one of the highly preferred SF from TPTY to NZM.

Sabari though have lot of stops in Kerala due to density of population, it can still be speeded up once it cross Kochi to Palakkad and from

Re# 6078223-29              
Line up in front and behind shabari is huge bidirectionally in KL i believe. Though it can take FEDL advantage and can get speeded up, every train front and back needed to be altered if this is supposed to get speeded up, needing an entire revamp. I wonder how they will do it.

TN yes speed up maybe possible but not to forget that it enters KPD - TPTY single line stretch at prime slot where significant number of crossings it should handle and also should consider guntur - pagidipalli section as

Rayalaseema eventually got speeded up since that TPTY SC became fully electrified double line long back and got LHB, which can easily touch 130 in Guntakal division as well.

Re# 6078223-30              
TVC departure at 0630 means conflict with Venad, Parasuram, Raptisagar, that whole slot is just jam packed with fast passenger like trains. Instead of aiming for SF, SC should just extend it to NED via MUE - NZB or BIDAR via VKB. Basically, a station with PM facilities or just continue RSA arrangements with 4 dedicated rakes for this train. At this point, I don't see SR budging even a bit. If only trains ran faster in Kerala without being fast passengers, we wouldn't have had this issue. Best bet would be an evening departure from TVC for faster schedule in Kerala or departing behind Kerala SF. Even then, there is a risk of getting caught up in the huge line up of Night time SF that will simply overtake Sabari, and PM at SC will become an issue, rescheduling, many know how that is going to work out.
