i dont know the rationale behind starting VB from JAM or JU instead of ADI or SBIB . Occupancy would have been much more higher.. it can be evidently witnessed in the case of Up Shatabdis and reverse shatabdis departing from Delhi in the morning and evening respectively..
business and tourist traveler traffic are more from major hubs to the regional hub in the morning as compared to the evening.

and this is happening with the VBs of Howrah and Mumbai as well..
in case of JAM VB .. it has been put to direct competition with intercity in both the direction.. which eats of up atleast 100 VB passengers..
Both VBs plying to ADI should either be reversed or extended to ST...
please wait...Translate to EnglishI don't get why they start VB from JAM or JU instead of ADI or SBIB. The occupancy would be much higher if they did it differently. You can see it clearly with the Up Shatabdis and reverse Shatabdis leaving from Delhi in the morning and evening respectively. There are more business and tourist travelers from major hubs to the regional hub in the morning compared to the evening. The same thing is happening with the VBs from Howrah and Mumbai as well. With JAM VB, it's in direct competition with the intercity in both directions, taking away at least 100 VB passengers. Both VBs going to ADI should either be reversed or extended to ST.
