Following announcement of 296 km GKP ⇌ LKO Vande Bharat via AY,
we have mixed response from rail enthusiasts.
Few wanted it to be till PRYJ (as per old news rumors) whereas some were against the alphabet 'C' shaped route. Since it was made to restricted till LKO, few suggested to extend it to CNB. there were other suggestions as well.

But
...

Layover of 9 hrs is not at all appreciated.

It would be good if the premium Vande Bharat is used optimally between the best possible destinations so that it not only earns revenue for IR but reduces crowd on the other trains.

Henceforth, I would like to suggest GKP ⇌ AF VB via LKO - CNB. (≈596km) PFA

There are limited trains for GKP ⇌ Agra and though LKO/CNB have trains for Agra but those are mostly long distance hence getting last minute tickets is difficult. Even so Tundla acts as transit point for Agra but it pain to travel road until you dont have your own vehicle.
Agra is a major tourist center of the country.

x-----x-----x-----x-----x

I am not against the idea of giving VB to Ayodhya but passengers from Lucknow & Gorakhpur prefer to travel distance of ≈150km to Ayodhya by car especially the ones who are having good purchasing power who are considered as target audience of proposed VB.

Alternatively, there can be Delhi ⇌ Ayodhya Vande Bharat which would be the fastest connectivity until Maryada Purushottam Shri Ram International Airport is operational. It is more or likely to get good patronage from Delhi. PFA. As 12004/03 remains packed throughout reason, hence they would have alternate option too.

Thank you ! suggestions welcomed.

I am eager to share more Vande Bharat route suggestions.

Re# 5769589-11               Past Edits
This train is terrible in so many ways:
- MUR-AY-BBK is a slow partially single line section. While NER is upgrading GD route to 130 KMPH
- Roads are already very good between GKP and AYC
- Arrival of return VB at GKP is 11:30 which is very inconvenient.
...
more...

Instead two separate VB AYC-LKO-DEL and GKP-LKO-AF (via GD) would have done better

NER first destroyed the schedule of Hamsafar express and now this.

if it goes via GD then you can reduce 30 min between GKP LKO. Your current timings are based on AY route

return seats are empty because timing is bad. Move the departure 45 min before to 6:30 PM and it will suddenly see a lot more passengers
