Great
As per information, SER started talks with SCR and SWR to remove Slip coaches inorder to convert the ICF rakes of 18047 Amravati Exp to LHB coaches and convert it to Superfast Exp.
If it happens soon it will be a good move beneficial for passengers.

Useful
Hope it happens soon. It's one of the very few remaining ICF trains now on HWH BZA route also since most of the route between GNT to GTL is double line now they can think of reducing the slack and upgrading it to SF category. Also a pantry car and additional AC coaches should be added.
I have also filed RTI with SER yesterday asking for list of LHB conversion planned by them in FY 24-25.

Re# 5801454-9              
With 130kph MPS in HWH BZA section, reduction of the big slack in GNT GTL section, avoiding slip attachment and detachment at GTL, shifting LC from GTL to UBL and removing some halts like DVD (since it goes to VSKP now) atleast 2 hours speed up is possible which would be enough to raise average speed to 55kph for SF conversion.
Also pre covid when LD HPT route was not fully double line and GNT GTL was a single line totally it used to do HWH VSG at 53 kph average and VSG HWH at 54 kph average speed.

Agree
I have travelled and seem the coaches of one SER train 18047/48 it undergoes PM either at SRC/PDPK but the maintenance is pretty average and now the ICF coaches are getting old too.

VSG CDO was top notch before but recently i.e. since last few years things were bad maybe because the ICF rakes were starting to get old. Now after LHB conversion I have not travelled in a single VSG CDO train but those who have travelled have said it's good.
Besides in KRCL MAO CDO is pretty good.

Why are you ok with English but not Hindi ?
Stop this crap about Hindi imposition dude.
Hindi is the most widely understood language by most Indians. This train not only travels in West Bengal but through other states too where people understand Hindi but not Bengali.
A lot of UP and Bihar migrants stay in my state but we never force
...
more...
them to learn our language we communicate with them in Hindi and also many of them do learn our language on their own without any one forcing them. It's called mutual respect.
You could have just said Railways should have added Bengali TBs along with Hindi rather than targeting Bihar.

It's a new CDO at Balurghat maybe the staff are new or they don't have all the necessary equipments.
But things will definitely improve as the station is getting developed. Both old as well new terminal are in West Bengal now it will be more easier to Balurghat and nearby area people to board the train as they won't have to travel to Malda like before.

Can anyone explain exactly what is the problem of SCR in lhbfing venkatadri express,almost all trains which are serving since 40+ years got lhbfied but this 48 year legend is still running with icf i think the biggest sin on this train is being originating from kachiguda,since SCR almost forgot that a CDO named KCG exist,even SWR treats Vasco better

That's sad it's true that by June all M/E trains at Vasco CDO will be LHBfied but unfortunately VSG has different sets of problems.
Also another fact one of KCG CDO daily train is ICF coz of SWR ie 17603/04 exp.

Except VSG YPR express which will get LHB rakes from June as bookings are suspended from 13th June and it was in LHB conversion list of SWR for FY 23-24.
