Chalo let's consider SCR is fine. Please go through this once.
SCR is interested in Shirdi connection only.
1. First of all, no new trains has been introduced by SCR in last few years on main line of NED-MMR. Although this route gives them lots of benefits but they have diverted trains by Akola. In last 2 years, SCR did not declare any special in this division. Please ignore Shirdi bound trains, anyhow all those trains are coming from AP and will travel through NED division in midnight.
2....
more... Old Locos: Loco failure is not new issue in this division. Frequently, locos are getting failed. Just 4 days before Tapovon Exp. Engine got failed in Partur. Although, we got 25 locos from IR, but our greatest Sec. Div. has kidnapped it. So, people here should not expect even good locos to reach on time.
3. Slow Development: MUE-PBN Doubling work has sanctioned more than 5 years ago. Last year they have started construction from PBN. And still require 3 more years to complete. Last month, Hon. Min. Niton Gadkari has put foundation stone of Dry port at Jalna. Due to this port, they will get revenue in Corores. But, SCR Officials is not ready with plan of how to give more facilities to this Dry port and adjust increased traffic due to this.
SCR has fixed policy, Jo Chal Raha Hai, Chalne Do, if people demands anything, then accept their demand letters, send few of them to Sec. Headquarters, anyhow, they will reject it. So, CR is an alternate option to Marathwada People. Because people has left hope from SCR that they will get anything from them.
