Only Kalka, Unchahar, Kalindi are remaining for being LHB.

Unchahar and Kalindi should be LHBfied in next 1 year.

Rack standardization policy has been withdrawn. Most of the trains have been reverted back to old CC.

Instead of trying to earn money by increasing AC coaches, they should focus on other methods which can help to reduce the gap between Sleeper and AC fare.

I think the extreme rake standardization of each and every train was a bad idea as of now. Instead they should have gone for keeping 5 to 7 SL coaches with 3 GS and 9 to 11 AC coaches type rake standardization in long distance trains initially.
Also now in some trains where AC travel demand exists they have reduced AC coaches which is also a bad idea eg. Goa express it will have only one 3AC and two 3E from June it's a terrible coach composition in my opinion.

Re# 6020564-7              
3E prices if priced lower would have been a superb middle ground between SL and 3AC.
In a country like India Air Conditioners should be a necessary commodity not a luxury because of the hot weather. I travelled in SL class in the hot month of May in 2014 it was a horrible journey coz of the heat and today combined with the overcrowding in SL it's a nightmarish experience.

Nagpur-CSMT Sevagram Express will run with LHB coaches Ex Nagpur w.e.f. 26.5.2024 while 12139 CSMTтАУ Nagpur Sevagram Express will run w.e.f. 27.5.2024.

Revised Composition: Total 22 Coaches-Two AC-2 Tier, 12 AC-3 Tier Economy, 4 Sleeper Class, Three General Second Class including GuardтАЩs brake van and o┬нne Generator Van.
*LHB Rakes*-
Linke Hofmann Busch (LHB) coach is a passenger coach developed by Linke-Hofmann-Busch of Germany. It has been adopted by Indian Railways and produced by rail coach manufacturing units at Kapurthala, Chennai and Raebareli.
It has multiple advantages over the conventional ICF rakes such as :
тАвLighter and Longer than ICF coaches
тАвBetter Speed
тАвSafer ( They do not climb o┬нn the adjacent coach in case of derailment)
тАвEnhanced seating capacity
тАвFitted with Bio Toilets
тАвEfficient braking at higher speeds
тАвBetter air conditioning
тАвEconomical and low maintenance cost
Replacement of ICF coaches with LHB coaches is another step by Railways towards providing better travelling experience to its passengers.

Since this is superfast train and superfast takes 3.25 hour to reach Gwalior, we can take 4 hours approximate for calculation so it will reach 11.30 to GWL then 6.30 hours for PM at GWL, can depart from GWL at 6.30 PM, and will take 4 hours to reach New Delhi.
