Re# 5713080-22              
Going by ur suggestion, assuming NGP BSP is to run only for 3 days, and remaining to any destination from New Delhi.... won't it better to have a 8C VB and replace the 16C VB with either if the 2 Mini VBs running?? Depending on the occupancy percentage... cause I know for a fact that Secunderabad Tirupati VB is almost full for the next upcoming days or weeks....

How can you say that even with 50-60% occupancy a VB can break even ? What I's the financial equation. Explain.

Re# 5713080-24              
Long ago I had visited some computations released by Railways . It was comparing diesel vs Electric train . It had fuel consumption, haul charges in it . I still not remember the figures. I am sorry. But the comparison was made for haul charges from Delhi to Jaipur / ADI ,and many other routes , I guess . Roughly break even was reached at around 40-50% occupancy with dynamic fare. Then there are other expenses which are like salaries of staff etc. so what I quoted is a rough estimation.
i still remember , It was year when railways released data favouring decision on dynamic charge . In total they earned 400 cr more due to dynamic charges.
...
more...

They are charging very high per seat as compared to nominal CC , 2S and SL fare..

These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
