Freights 😅 I guess. SECR's most favorite thing to do is run freight trains and for that they are gonna slow down passenger trains even if it's Vande Bharat.

The route MPS is 110kmph and upgraded to 130kmph and in this month notification is given to operate trains @130kmph subject to PSRs in the section and availability of crew to handle 130kmph. Moreover it has high freight traffic which has to out of track in loop when VB passes.

That's sad to hear... even for VB it's going to slow down??? Ideally, wherever freight trains r to run, those sections should be quadrupled.... like how MAS AJJ section has... I think it has 4 lines (2 for expresses and 2 for locals) and 2 extra in some areas within the section.... so that VB as well as all other types of trains won't have to suffer.....

Freight traffic is unpredicted.. don't know whether they're on time or not... so finding that might be difficult... not at all sure... I may be wrong... feel free to comment if u agree or disagree...

And guys, this is w.r.t. days running.. isn't it better to have 6 days with any weekday off RATHER than having weekend off?? I mean doesn't this make what I suggested??? Cause weekends only there might be more PAX going to BSP or NGP either ways and sped time with family... so for me, I'd personally say have 1 weekday off... preferably Wed.... like MAS MYS VB (there some modifications going to happen as per SR zone but yeah just for reference)....
