Whilst the CNB-ALD section runs at/beyond capacity and the trend is similar for CNB-ON-LKO section; we have tracks running from Unnao-Sitapur which are woefully underutilized and see only a single pair of passenger train per day. Same is for the ON-RBL tracks which too has too little trains. IR ought to upgrade these sections both to benefit passengers on this route and exploring alternate routes.
It'll help connect CNB with STP more efficiently. Also, I find it ironical that Kanpur-Allahabad has an alternate route sitting right next to the main route that...

please wait...Translate to EnglishYo man, the CNB-ALD part is jam-packed, and CNB-ON-LKO ain't any better. But then we got the Unnao-Sitapur tracks just chillin', barely used with only one measly passenger train a day. Same goes for ON-RBL tracks, hardly any action there. Indian Railways gotta step up, upgrade these links for the passengers and maybe explore some fresh routes, ya know?
This move would link CNB and STP real nice. It's kinda funny how there's this shorter alternate path from Kanpur to Allahabad, just 14 km. If they double that track and speed it up, trains could zip from CNB to ALD without messin' up the main route.
