Look bro if KR proposes a train it starts from Madgaon this train will serve Vasco, Madgaon as well as SVM.
So still better than KR proposal for the citizens of Goa.
Also not all hope is lost Track Doubling of Hospet Vasco is put on fast track expected to be completed in 4 years.
That should lead in future to...
more... speed up of this train as well as frequency increase and separate trains for HYB and TPTY. SCR should be looking forward to that.
Whereas if this train would have run from Madgaon it would have never been extended to VSG also both VSG and SVM would have been deprived of it.
