If I am correct. the 12306(via Patna) started way before the current Patna Rajdhani. Why doesn't IR now run it via the shorter Grand Chord route(via Gaya)? Most of the passengers are end to end(in either case, NDLS-PNBE already has many daily trains; adding a weekly train with few available berths won't change anything)

Re# 1855690-13              
As explained by Mr. Amit, as it existed Bi-weekly with a day @ JSME & other @ MDP!!
Its nt a stupid practice, as looking out for stoppage demand & hence reduction in average speed of many trains (which eventually yield less slack & increase probability of OT, especially in Bihar), this fundamental will get very useful by keeping demand fulfilled along with stop been shared at different days!!
Look at stoppage of Magadh/Shramjeevi/Vikramshila/Maurya......thy stop @ approximately many stations, which dnt hav any impact on its revenue, but are prone to get undue
...
more...
OT & derailed schedules!! If on different days, buckets of stop get created & shared bi/tri-weekly for same train..it certainly ease the stoppage load for each them, without any revenue impact along with political demand address!!

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
