Yes ... Mumbai ADI train set is High rise pantograph rake too. I just noticed it . If it is a swap then Mumbai Adi reverse VB must be running with blue white rake these days . Can anyone confirm that ?

Are they willing to test and run HRPT train set at 160 kmph ? Thats also a valid question .. if not then train set will remain in AI

Why reverse ADI BCT VB was allocated with HRPT train set ? Where there pre planned extensions towards Saurashtra or Rajasthan in the mind ?

Here is the take allotted to Reverse ADI vande bharat . I guess it is the VB 2.0 rake used as spare in Delhi or with services like SVDK and BSB VB. An expert can tell which rake is this by looking at the shell number .

Meanwhile it is the LRPT rake ..
I think OG HRPT VB trainset of AII VB has gone to yearly maintenance and that’s why the replacement with saffron VB has happened . Which was the only alternate 16C HRPT train set available on the IT network …

I doubt on the data representing operational cost of VB . Yes , VB 1.0 was tagged as less energy efficient and technology was immediately replaced in the version 2.0.
Train sets are considered more energy efficient and are becoming norm of the rail travel around the world.
Also , IR would have priced ticket according to the energy consumption of the train set .. but VB costs only 20% more than the Shatabdi !
Data
...
more...
is required to verified , a detail break up would help !
IR is not fool to introduce DMUs MEMUs Vande Metros train sets for low cost operations ...

Very early starting time from Lucknow. Plus route is only 100 kph capable. To make it worse, more speed restrictions post Haridwar. IR could have easily introduced an overnight service b/w Lucknow and Dehradun. Would have been easier for passengers and probably more would have used it compared to an 8 Car VB.

Re# 6013992-3              
The train is running in WL from LKO direction. More availability means more last minute travellers can opt for the train. IR is earning good. The TT will reduce this year once LKO-MB will get 130 kmph clearance .
IR should then introduce another VB from CDG to LKO in the reverse direction.
POV: everybody is not comfortable in travelling by sleeper coaches in the night trains. For them and the business travellers , this train is a good option….

Re# 6013992-5              
This train has a lot of slack between HW and MB. According to the currently designed TT… by reducing slack and increasing MPS…
CDG-LKO is possible with limited stops @110 kmph !
The whole section between Delhi-MB-GKP-North Bihar is proposed to get 130 kmph shortly ! This is the part of IRs top strategic section .. would get Multi tracked and 160 kmph upgrade for sure after some time as per the plans…
