What is the reason behind the technical halt out there?

Is there any such technical halt for this train at Southern Railway zone? because it skips the entire zone

DVD doesn't have watering facility PF1 main line PF2 is loop always occupied by freight to let passenger trains from Vskp pass. Realignment needs to be done at SHM north or SHM to halt bypass trains for 5mins as regular stop with crew change.

Crew change point. As Vskp main station is skipped crew change the train at SHM north. Vijaywada Visakhapatnam is a section for crew and Chennai/Renigunta to Benguluru region is a section for crew.

A quick suggestion: add another AC two-tire class to eliminate one sleeper class.
LOCO-HCPV-DL1-S10-S9-S8-S7-S6-S5-S4-S3-S2-S1-PC-B6-B5-B4-B3-B2-B1-A2-A1-H1-EOG

sleepers and increase AC coaches. LOCO-EOG-H1-A1-B1-B2-B3-B4-B5-B6-B7-B8-B9-B10-PC-S1-S2-S3-S4-S5-S6-S7-DL1-HCPV

The prestigious train, like Duronto. As the waiting list grows, apartments should offer better accommodations. It is impossible for the sleeper class to handle this much crowding.
