If you see all trains in this route running on time then you'll understand.. The most convinient timings for an overnight journey.. If you wish to go by sleeper.. If you add its Avg delay with its timetable then also its quicker than all other trains in this route, if they are on time also. To add to it, runs fine upto Ald and then they start delaying it intentionally, by making it wait at Ald outer for hours for some slow train like Mahanagri etc to depart which is also scheduled to be overtaken by it and they don't allow the scheduled overtake even though Mahanagri has 3 halts from Ald to Mgs, and SK has none.. They have made special plans to delay this train.. Today when it was morning they didn't halt it Ald outer and skipped Ald too. But when its night they halt it for hours.....
