Aurangabad can become div HQ but for CR and not for SCR. It can be done by transferring MMR-AWB section to CR. This will solve almost 80% problems in this section/region, be them revenue related, logistical, operational or railway employee related. My gut feeling tells that Aurangabad- Ahemadnagar and Aurangabad-Chalisgaon lines can be get sanctioned in coming future. So new Aurangabad devision can have following sections:
1. Manmad(excluding)-Aurangabad( excluding or CR part of stn)
2. Manmad-puntamba-Shirdi
3....
more... Aurangabad-Ahemadnagar(excluding)
4. Ahemadnagar-Beed-Parli
5. Aurangabad-Chalisgaon-Dhule-Nardana
Aurangabad should be the point of zonal interchange between CR and SCR with Aurangabad in SCR only.
or one more solution is, southern half of Aurangabad station can be transferred to CR for construction of new PFs and other facilities. This it will be win-win for both CR and SCR
