Re# 6033374-22              
Slightly keeping the conflicts between RFans a little aside, I want to know in general, like OUT OF NOWHERE, where did they get this idea of launching a DD for Keralites???? I mean it's the wrong thing I'm doing to barge in RFan's conflicts, but I want to understand this.... DD which was last launched 6 years back (TPTY VSKP DD), what made them think of launching another one??? What benefit r they planning to get for the Keralites???

Re# 6033374-24              
Just a slight objection for point 'c', that now SMVB is getting into useful terminal.... I've seen many pax and good transport connectivity from other parts of the city... so please correct that only stmt... other points no judgment for that....👍

So looking at ur points, I don't know where this is going to lead to... and I've a feeling that this might not work out... cause this would hamper other normal service trains... like Venad or other popular trains of Kerala (sorry don't remember their names).... let's wait and watch...👍👍

Re# 6030825-18              
What u r stating and asking r 100 correct and I take ur point into consideration... ideally that should be the case by launching normal services but if they're taking these routes in the form of VBs by trying to achieve the 75 mark, then nothing can be done..

A little out of context... even I feel for that CBE BNC CBE VB, they should have released more normal trains than launching the VB BECAUSE of 2 reasons:-
1.
...
more...
Very slow avg
2. Too highly priced for slow svg and short distance

Ideally VBs are bound to run at 180kmph (tested), 160kmph (selected sections) and 110/130kmph (most of the IR network).... and this is running very low avg and for BLR CBE, I could just take the Uday or Ernakulam SF train which will cost very low for me....

Now coming back to this DBG RNC VB, as u said they should have made more normal service trains than launching VB for this route.... I am trying to understand how this will benefit the pax... will it serve the purpose or is this gonna be for political purpose?? Uparwaala ko patha chalega...🙏🤔

Re# 6030825-20              
I don't wish to argue and these r all urs and mine opinions... but I'm trying to understand why r they not launching the most demanding VBs and launching the not-so-demanding ones... SC Pune/NGP (not sure if NGP is demanding), VSKP Puri, ST Jamnagar, VSKP TPTY (although tight but might work), CBE TPTY, ERS BNC, MDU BNC (BNC VBs almost considered for commercial run), KLBG SNSI and many more.... these r all IMO worth trains for pax to connect to different parts of the country....

Few ideas I've taken from this RFan

Let's wait and see what's gonna happen... and assuming it's real, I hope that they start from BZA and NOT from PDY cause of 2 things, one is no PM maintenance at PDY (AVBL at VM but no separate pitline for VB maintenance) and second is might put very odd timings from PDY leading to not that feasible for pax in PDY....👍👍
