I agree with both of you that this train can be speeded up further. I have already tagged this train as a Superfast one. But as of now, while working out the timetable, I had to keep in mind the other trains running on this route and their present timetable. I had to keep this train trailing behind SC YPR Garib Rath from Wadi to YPR. Once the timetable is revised for all of the trains on this route, it can be revised for this one too.
A full Ac train...
more... like Duronto/ Humsafar too can be launched separately, in addition to a normal Superfast like this one. Nonetheless, as of now, there is just one dedicated train plied between these two metro cities. So there is a scope to add a couple of more.
KJT is a technical halt, as mentioned, to attach the bankers. Hup is added to provide better connectivity to the region between DMM and Bengaluru.
