But Kavach is necessary now due to adopting lastest technologies.

takes hardly 10 seconds to cover 0.5KM and a little bit distraction can cause a severe incident.

More then that speed of trains cannot be increased to 180 or 200 without Cab signalling and that is possible only with Kavach

Even First AC coaches are not safe anymore.

In many trains, First AC coach remaining adjacent to UR coach and in day time, vendors keep the passage open resulting UR coach passengers keep using toilets, washroom of First AC coach

Re# 6106452-19              
Most of our main routes need a train with regular coach composition with ample non AC coaches. And a fully AC clone closely following the original train.

Of course feasibility should be taken care of, and fare chart should be rational. But I think most of the trains can have their clones fully filled, even if they're completely AC.

In recent days I've seen unhealthy obsession of members with trains and stations.

For example the Vikramshila guy, he left the site over a stoppage rumor. The Malda guy, he's inconsolable after Farakka went to BLGT. The Ara, Patna and Sasaram guys, they think people are jealous of a city they probably won't even visit. The Kakinada and Khammam guys, they went on abusing other cities. Or the anti Vande Bharat guy, leaving no stone unturned to create controversy.
...
more...

At the end of the day, trains are just a transport medium. They'll get extended if railways sees the feasibility or even if strong politics is involved.

Trains aren't some status symbol, regular people don't even care if they're sitting in some random special or a named train as long as it takes them to their destinations.

You can get a thousand trains, or maybe get none e.g. Rajgir area, but will that change what the city has to offer? Or what is the potential of that city? Or what are the living standards of people in that city? No.

As I've commented earlier, trains aren't life. Being a fan is okay, but making them a matter of life or ego is equally bad.

Hope people understand this and indulge in constructive discussions. Many older members have already left this site, due to the undue politics and controversies. If that keeps happening all that will remain is a fish market with no knowledgeable source in sight.

Aptly put. You can expect something from people who are willing to learn. Nothing can be expected from someone who thinks their word is the word of Gods. Ignorance is an idiot's tool.

This is what's ought to happen when people don't have a mind of their own. The whole country now acts like the spokesperson of one political party or other. No one seems to have a free will anymore. Utter dystopia.

Isn't it high time this train bypassed SBC and loco reversal is taken up at SMVB? Would save a huge amount of time and can be speeded up drastically. While slot is an issue in SA CBE section, an earlier arrival at CBE ensures this train's right time departure from CBE.

Ajanta is already running full until Manmad, no need to extend it further. But still your suggestion of RSA between Devagiri and Ajanta can be implemented by shifting the PM either to CSMT or MMR. So the incoming Ajanta to SC can depart as Devagiri and vice-versa with around 4 hrs TAT at SC for both.

It would be better to depart Ajanta from MMR at 1600 and arrival at KCG at 0400 or so, it can even be terminated at HYB . Provided it gets LHB, it's better to have RSA with Dakshin SF so that while incoming Dakshin gets PM, Inbound Ajanta can just be cleaned up and SC ADB needs a day time connection rather than night time with Krishna Express. This can also be done by extending RAL SC Express to ADB. Krishna exp can be short terminated at NZB which will reduce the number of rakes used and it can depart at 05:45 or 06:00 to take up Ajanta slot between NZB and SC, would be much better for NZB pax travelling to SC as well. I don't think MMR is in any mood to do PM for this train so why not reduce the TAT at MMR, currently it is 14...

hours or so. Ajanta can serve as a dedicated train between SC and AWB, MMR. Late departure from any HYB terminal would also be useful in this case.
