yes..i know the only thing to be thankful in ASN-KIUL section is poorva express..if this route takes a bit long time.it doesnt mean that it should be deprived of good trains.it rather means this route need little more attention.yes u are right we can come to ASN-KIUL for better connectivity.we often do so.but thats not possible everytime.nor railway has any such dedicated chains.atleast one daily SF train required for NDLS via this route.pressure on poorva is huge.rajdhani only weekly doesnt help much.
its not the matter for only delhi bound trains.even for major big cities,this route lacks regular connectivity.

Look Sabya Da...here ur justification is almost correct but I want to point out a few things...The Extra 2 Hr 50 mts which you're talking about the main line,is not justified at all...In fact last week I noticed in Simran that HWH Raj(12305) reached PNBE almost 35 mts b/t & it was staggering around Fatuha as it was way before its time .Also at MGS,it was b/t by about 50 mts...So if these two are included then at least 2 Hr can be saved & then the time difference b/w Grand Chord & Main Line would remain only 40 mts(which was HWH Raj's actual speed when it used to leave HWH @ 16.15)..Then I dont think people would have any discrimination in their mind about the time difference b/w Main Line & Chord.
& For ur justification,all that I need to say that people are coming to catch their connecting train from as far as 1500 km & even availing Onward Journey..For Jasidih people nearest major RailHead Asansol is only 111 km & PNBE is only 220 km..So that shouldnt be a problem anyways
I think those are One in a 5 days that u'll see so much of BT for those 2 stations.
usually it's 20 mins BT at PNBE and RT at MGS but then slacks are there till PNBE because IR knows that a train can get late between ASN-PNBE and they dont want any RAJ to get more late due to schedule constraint.Hence Slacks are given as such.

if IR is too keen to save time..then trains can be started from ASN also..3 hours between HWH-ASN will be saved if it is so necessary..but diverting all trains via grand chord seems a discrimination.i mean 2 rajdhanis daily from there and just one radhani weekly from this route.2 trains for rajasthan daily via grand and a single one from main line..many such examples..just to save 2 hours..not justified to me.
