I would like to disagree on this... Wasnt it started due to demand from indore ? Ratlam already has many trains from mumbai and very prestigious trains.
So IMO this train was meant for indore only...

Re# 495388-31                  
I have one question.. I know it is very far from now, but still...
What do you think: will this train run via fatehabad, i.e. the to be converted route after the guage conversion.
Then surely rtm indb distance can be covered in 2 hours.. Total distance 118KM... 60KM average speed is very possible

Re# 495388-55                  
This trains departure time is really okay from BCT but looking at the slack time given it can be easily reaching at indb at 10:15 or max 10.40 by the below mentioned schedule
BCT: 11:15
BRC: 03:30 -- 03:40
RTM: 7:50 --- 07:55
UJN: 09:10 -- 09:11
INDB: 10:40
One more thing if removing a couple of 3A coaches if IR decides to put 4 Second Class Reserved Sleeper Coaches, this train will surely be a hit as Avantika remains always high in Waitlist specially in SL Classes on weekends.. so the extra rush will

clear with duronto
So it can have the following Coach Composition:
First AC -- 1
Second AC -- 2
Third AC -- 7
Sleeper Class -- 4
Pantry -- 1
EOG -- 2
____________________
Total Coaches: 17
____________________
**** From Indore *****
Looking at the Current Time the train leaves INDB at 23:00 and reaches BCT at 23:40. Which means half the office hours are wasted. Instead if change in schedule happens.. it will surely be a hit.. If ppl remember the Indore BANDRA holiday leaves INDB t 05:40pm and reaches bdts at 09:45.. so that is a good time to reach BCt for this Duronto can leave INDB at 09:00pm with the below mentioned schedule:-
INDB: 21:00
UJN: 22:15 -- 22:17
RTM: 23:45 -- 23:55
BRC: 03:35 -- 03:40
BCT: 09:35
_______________________________________-
If WR decides to make these changes this Duronto will change from White Elephant to Black Horse pretty soon...

Re# 495388-62                  
Ohh yes from this I remember....
I observed one thing. Most of the trains that got electric engine have been slowed down in the indore ujjain section. Why so ?? It would be great if you could ask the attendant or the LP....
Examples:
Indore-Jodhpur Ranthambore Express:
Indore Pune Express/19312
Indore-Nizamuddin Intercity Express/12415
Malwa Express/12920
Nagpur- Indore Trishatabdi Express/12914
Avantika Express/12961
Ahilyanagari Express/16326
...
Read more...
and some more..
This effect is more observable in case of trains from Ujjain to Indore.
I thought the speed should have increase but it has happened the other way round....
Hoping for an answer
Thanx
