SCR is going for a 8 Coacher Vande Bharat in Secunderabad Tirupati Route, similar rake could be tried for Guwahati New Jalpaiguri Section as well.
Yes, Dibrugarh Shatabdi was an utter failure, I don't think even inclusion of Tinsukia would've saved it.
How Naharlagun Shatabdi survived escapes me ЁЯШВ
Problem with Guwahati Afternoon Departure is Tourists will not choose it, it goes well beyond...
more... normal Hotel Check - in time since trains arrive in Night. Something similar happened with Shatabdi Trains of Guwahati as as well. No administrative reason for Daytime Travel to Guwahati (most of them would take overnight train to arrive early and leave in night), Tourists from Guwahati (or who come to Guwahati) won't choose those Shatabdi Trains because of late night arrival at Destination City. Same will happen to this proposed Vande Bharat if it gets afternoon departure from Guwahati.
So for even a slight chance of success, Morning Departure from Guwahati is absolutely essential.
Let's be honest, if this route isn't able to sustain a Premium Train in NFR, no route ever will.
please wait...Translate to HindiSCR ja raha hai 8 Coacher Vande Bharat ka istemal karke Secunderabad Tirupati route mein, waise hi rake Guwahati New Jalpaiguri section mein bhi try kiya ja sakta hai.
Haan, Dibrugarh Shatabdi to bilkul flop tha, mujhe lagta hai Tinsukia ke sath bhi shamil hone se bacha nahi gaya hota.
Naharlagun Shatabdi kaise bach gayi hai, mujhe samajh nahi aata ЁЯШВ
Guwahati afternoon departure ka problem hai ki tourists ise chunege nahi, ye normal hotel check-in time se bahut aage jaati hai kyunki raat mein train pahunchti hai. Guwahati ke Shatabdi trains ke saath bhi kuch aisa hi hua. Din ke samay Guwahati ki yatra ke liye koi administrative wajah nahi hai (unme se adhikansh raat ko pehunchne aur raat mein nikalne waale tourists hai), Guwahati se aane wale tourists (ya jinke paas Guwahati aane yaha jaane ka mauka hai) usi wajah se Shatabdi trains nahi chunege kyunki wo raat ke late pahunchte hai. Yahi hoga is proposed Vande Bharat train ke saath bhi agar ise Guwahati se afternoon departure mile.
Toh thoda sa bhi success ke liye, Guwahati se subah nikalna bilkul zaroori hai.
Chalo, sach bolte hai, agar yeh route NFR mein ek premium train ko bhi samarthan nahi de paata hai toh koi route nahi de paayega.
