Because they are nothing but lazy. SR especially MS/MAS div base has lost many prestigious train cause they do not want to handle it anymore mentioning they are saturated and will make a way for new trains. Some examples include MAS bangalore mail, mumbai mail, Howrah mail, mumbai express, TVC mail (now in cbe base), Cape express (used to MS base now and then made as SWR train and then TN base and now back to SWR). Boat mail, Ananthapuri gone out of MS base. God knows what I missed in this list. All these are good trains MAS/MS gave up to other base/zones.
please wait...Translate to EnglishThey're just lazy. Especially the trains under SR, like the MAS division, have given away many top-notch trains 'cause they don't feel like managing them anymore. They say they're overloaded and are clearing the path for new trains. For example, MAS Bangalore Mail, Mumbai Mail, Howrah Mail, Mumbai Express, TVC Mail (now in CBE division), Cape Express (was once in MS division, then became SWR train, then TN division, and now back to SWR). Boat Mail, Ananthapuri have also moved out of MS division. Who knows what else I missed! All these great trains that MAS/MS handed over to other divisions/zones.
