NDLS - TKD = 130 KMPH
TKD - AGC = 150 KMPH
AGC - LAR = 130 KMPH
LAR - BPL = 120 KMPH

The whole stretch between NDLS - BPL might have been designed for 160 KMPH but a train cannot do more than what has been put up above or in short cannot do more than the MPS.

none of the trains is doing greater than 130 KMPH in this section.
