well !! you can except trains to run always full during a weekday !!
People stil prefer Shatabdis on these routes due to excellent services and less time consuming journeys.
more than 60% is good for mid week performance that too with flexi fare.
even volvos run empty during this lean period. !!
there...
more... are less than 36 volvo service jointly on this section. they are 42 seater.. that means provide 1500 odd seats in a day. most of the volvos runs at 50-60% occupancy and the journey is long and uncomfortable than shatabdis..
NR is increasing the speed of the shatabdis on this stretch soon..
expecting some more patronage in the future ahead !!!
