Re# 510862-5              
Few reasons are:
Number is very similar to sampoorn Kranti,
Rake was deployed as Sampoorn Kranti
To attract passengers on the name of Sampoorn Kranti and LHB
They (ECR) had no alternative
Smpoorn
...
more...
Kranti is ECRs poster boy train contarary of fact that Vaishali,Bihar Smpark Kranti,Sapt Kranti and Swatantrata Sainani are no less popular in North Bihar are earning more than Pet Poster Boy Train.

Re# 510862-7              
Right, but this is a classical case where WAP-5/7 is made to pull a passenger train and therefore ignoring the efficiency of their capacity. Same way LHB coaches are designed to run at high speed. I had no complai if another train with old ICF rakes had been started in the timing of this newly introduced train. However since the LHB rakes being used here, may be they should use this train at the slot of 12393/94 so that it covers the journey in 12 -13 hours and shift 12393 /94 to the timings of this newly introduced train

Now let it b any loco!! P-5/P-7 or anyone. until unless the designers find a clear path for this train across all major junctions, we can't help.
Some trains have olden timings so they can b altered for few mins. but when such specials are introduced, its like messing up with the daily ones n weeklies. that's y Specials are meant to b lil slow than the regular runners. Don't worry, its for few months.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
