DRM/WAT will Definitely try for this train via TIG,BLGR, SBP. It should be a Tri Weekly.
Hirakud Exp via BBS should be run 4 days a week .
Hirakud Exp via BBS should be run via Sambalpur City avoiding SBP.
Both trains( Hirakud via BBS & proposed train via TIG, BLGR) should be run up to

Waltair division sent proposal to make Samata Daily to ECOR headquarters and the same sent to IRCTC TT meeting but was rejected citing the proposal can be seen after LHB fication. This is some 3 yrs back. Now Orissa representatives are asking for a new train to TIG to sambalpur to connect New Delhi. So if ECOR puts a proposal from Vskp to NDLS biweekly via TIG SBP BSP Katni Bina sharing slot with Hirakud and reverse in Samata slot they are chances that it get approved. The proposal is for new train and not to divert existing Hirakud exp.
