To presume Section open with Mail Service is incorrect!! Pic 3 Analysis
Halt Pattern: 1867 HWH Chord Mail - 5 out of 31 (Pass 19 & Local Pass 31)* 1868 MAS-SBC/CBE - 16/15/12 out of 21 and 26/25/23 out of 30 (Stopped every Station past JTJ. Projected Mail got most halt)
Speed: 1867 HWH Chord Mail manage 60 against 41 (2nd Best) * 1868 MAS-SBC/CBE manage 34/27/24 ((Projected MAS Mail was 2nd best)
If...
more... SBC/Bypore Mail started 1864/1862, how come their halt pattern & speed was as good as passenger & improved in 1935 or earlier when regular Exp show up. We still dont open any Section straightway with Exp Service & 1/2 Mail show up on 1 Aug 1962, two years after HWH-Yamuna Bank was done. Further JTJ-SBC was first connected on 3 Aug 1864 as it get celebrated on 3rd not 1st Aug!!
