Re# 5017608-5              
KR is single with 120 kmph operations for years.
With proper distant signaling I can't see why that won't be possible on single line.
I suspect terrain will be more of a spoilsport rather than it being single line.
That, and IR'S laziness :p

Re# 5017608-15              
The limitation is of safety, and with distant signal it is possible to achieve enough safety to allow for operations beyond 110.
By the way, this is the snap of KR being cleared by rdso for 150 kmph :D read point 1.3

Re# 5017608-17              
Tejas in Karanjadi-Karmali section was clear to do 120 as it is double distant.
Previously, madgaon janashtabdi with old SG coaches (2003 made) had clearance for 120, as was TVC raj, but the loco of TVC raj (EMD) and coaches of madgaon janashtabdi had changed leading to no permit to do 120. Let's see whether electrification and new LHB coaches changes it!

Re# 5017608-24              
Distant signal is like wifi repeater.
A wifi repeater doesn't have a 'signal' of it's own, it can only take the signal coming from router, amplify it, and then transmit the signal over a larger area of home/office
The same is true for distant signal. It doesn't 'guard' a section, like main signal does. What it does is repeat the aspect of signal ahead of it. Distant signals are placed at a distance of 1 km before main signal, and the aspect is based on signal ahead of it. By this you get
...
more...
advance warning 1 km before about signal aspect, which generally doesn't happen in absolute block territory as absolute block signal are placed only at extreme end of territory (basically you see the next signal after leaving the station shortly before the coming station, usually the home signal itself)
This type of signal is called permissive signal as you are not supposed to stop there, rather you have to stop at main signal only, but you know a km in advance you have to stop and thus you can apply brakes well in advance. In double distant you have two signals, placed one km apart each so you know two km before about oncoming stop signal.
These signals will have a 'P' mark over it, go through the two pics attached for what distant signals look like, and their necessity in sections above 110 (not needed in Automatic block)

The perspective of image is more responsible for making the gradient look more prominent.
Shots taken from lower height looking upwards often do that.

I don't know, sadly.
I thought it was the Mangalore miraj express, but that was called mahalaxmi so it couldn't be it.
Waiting for your answer..
