(even though I can understand Bangalore was not that big and up untill early 19th century Poona holded More significance than Bombay). Now that's for early 1900's to 1940's..
Now straight to 1950's in this timeline Bombay is more Significant than Poona. And There are 2 or Possibly 3 Trains Between Bangalore and Poona and There are Connecting Trains To Bombay from Poona for SBC Pax..
In this timeline of 50's why these Bangalore poona trains Were not Extended to Bombay was it due to gauge conversion of Bombay Poona section or any other reason
