So far, most of the routes have been chosen relatively well I think.
For Vande Bharat v1:
- Delhi - Varanasi is a hit
- Delhi - Katra is a hit
...
more...
For Vande Bharat v2:
- Mumbai - Gandhinagar is expected to have high patronage because of crazy demand in spite of the already running Tejas, Shatabdi, Double Decker, Karnavati
- Delhi - Amb Andaura I'm not sure since Chandigarh has like 3 Shatabdis and 1 Jan Shatabdi also. Need to wait and watch
- Chennai - Mysuru will most likely become a hit since the route has demand even after 2 Shatabdis, Double Decker, Intercity. Also SR has promised to revise the timings in 2023.
- Bilaspur - Nagpur... don't really know much about the patronage on this route.
