I think wishing to serve Tatanagar as well is the reason why it runs via the longer TATA-KGP section.

Aaj aukaat par aa gaya South Eastern Railways. This train got 15 minutes late in reaching Tatanagar. It was stopped at Kandra for few minutes, then at Gamharia and then at Adityapur for couple of minutes before it could reach Tatanagar. It took 55 minutes to travel from Chandil to Tatanagar, a distance of 35 km. It should have been completed in less than 30 minutes.

Koi bhi BKSC pax KSX jakar VB nahi lega. There is good bus connectivity and 3 days ICE . Agar train lena hai to DHN/PRR options. Jaha pe sf and mail/exp trains nahi rukti waha VB ka stop is joke

You need to have contact with commercial department of your zone to get this. For a detailed overview including deboarding data, it's better to file a RTI.

For Ranchi, Purulia it's a long route, meaning more time consuming and more fare. So chance of good weekday occupancy is low.
For Tatanagar, it's a very good train. Fate of this VB is completely on it.

Re# 5839308-16              
Looks like a similar pattern to MyS-MAS VB. From Mys train is relatively less occupied . It gets completely full at Bangalore. Similarly from MAS till Mys almost 90% of passengers deboard at Bangalore.

End to end passengers are less, intermediate passengers more. Because of this overall occupancy ends up on higher side as same seat may have booking for 2 passengers. With festive season coming up and vacations as well, likely to see more passengers in coming days
