Re# 5962792-29              
I am telling this scenario if the whole line connecting SBC till MAQ via JTJ,SA, PGT is fit to run trains in 130 kmph MPS..Don't you think it could cover in at least 9 hrs. It could take may be 3 to 4 years as the speed upgradation works have commenced.

Re# 5962792-30              
At present, 360 kms takes 9 hours. VB can take 6.5 to 7 hours. No further reduction possible.
Via PGT SA, MAQ SBC is 840 kms. With strengthened track, can take 15 hours. Covering MAQ SBC via PGT in 9 hours just impossible

Currently 16526 is covering SBC-PGT stretch in 8 hrs with the existing infrastructure. So, If a normal Express could cover the distance in 8 hrs, a high speed VB could cover in 6 hrs if the speed is upgraded to 130 kph in this stretch.For MAQ PGT, it could be done in under 4 hrs if upgraded to the same MPS.
Current KGQ TVC VBs covers KGQ-SRR in 2hr58Min. So, MAQ-PGT it could easily cover in max 4hr 30min.
I am pretty sure it won't take 15hrs to cover this stretch as you

As per your reply, MAQ PGT can be covered in 4 hours 30 minutes. How much time required for remaining PGT SBC?

If the speed is upgraded to 130 kph, obviously it could be covered in under 6 hrs time. Maybe be in another 2 to 3 years time. So, in total the whole stretch could be covered in 10hr 30min.

Plz note that the time is expected to further reduce in the SRR-MAQ stretch as works have started for 130 MPS upgradation. So, 4hr 30 min could possibly change to 4 hrs..Lets see.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
