Why IR is operating trains like bi-weekly NDLS-Moga Shatabdi 398kms 7:05 hrs @ 56kmph with just 10CC+1EC ICF coaches. Even then it does not enjoy good patronage.
There is no logic to introduce a short distance biweekly train like shatabdi, especially when there is no SF or Express train to connect the two cities? This Shatabdi was introduced on demand of MP from Punjab.
This train should be made a Duronto with many non ac chaircar coaches so that more people can use it, much higher occupancy and revenue can be...
more... earned from this train. Frequency may be increased to meet the demand.
