Hello Everybody..!! today is 37th Anniversary of 18645/46 HWH HYB EAST COAST Express. . It was introduced on on 16/05/1975 b/w BZA & HWH,Named after Eastern Coast of india.. train number was 45/46. Stoppages b/w BZA- VSKP : Vijayawada,Eluru,Tadepalligudem,Nidadavolu,Rajamundry,Samalkot,Pithapuram,Annavaram, Tuni,Ellamanchili,Anakapalle,Visakhapatnam. . later b/w 1980-90: the train was extended to...

I think its should be between HWH-Chennai main line which is saturated like any thing. Already BZA-KZJ 3rd sanctioned same time they should start the 3rd in east coast route also. Right Venkat. I think Godavari has become a victim of the stoppages. Other trains have been luckier. Take the case of 3UP/4DN HWH-Chennai Mail. 1986 timings are HWH dep: 2000 MAS arr:445 / MAS dep: 2200 HWH arr:635. Present timings HWH dep: 2345 MAS arr:350/MAS dep: 2340 HWH arr:410. The curtailment in running time is more nearly 4/5 hours despite the same number of 33 stoppages. Runwise I rate it higher than the present-day Coromandel although Coromandel when introduced did the run in flat 25 hrs with only 3 halts at BBS, VSKP and BZA.

I think dur would take 24 hour on the route,.. Yes sir...If some visits india after 30 years he might have enjoy journey by Coromandal and says india never changes :) They Can do in Parts.. like HWH-KGP,VZM-VSKP,AKP-TUNI,SLO-RJY,EE-BZA,GDR_SPE_MAS Already HWH-PKU route has 3rd line.. if DURONTO is introduced in HWH-MAS,then it would take 23-24 hrs..
