Presently 10 times a week people can travel directly by train to Bangalore from Vasco, Goa, where as, such provision in reverse direction is restricted only to 3 times a week. This is a very odd situation unheard of in railway system and is found only on this particular route if I am not wrong- normally there are pairs of trains running to and fro on any route/section. Tourist/passenger flow between two important destinations like Bangalore and Goa cannot be one sided, and this lop-sidedness need to be corrected at the earliest.
The imbalance sited here is due to the fact that everyday a section runs attached to Goa Expresss from Vasco up to Londa, where it is linked to Rani

Chennamma Express for onward journey to Bangalore; but there is no corresponding train in reverse direction. The other three regular pairs of trains are biweekly 7309/7310 between Vasco and Yesvantpur and weekly 7311/7312 between Vasco and Chennai via Yesvantpur.
This anomaly can be set right, may be by originating from Bangalore the section that currently runs from Hubli to Vasco - attached to 1048(Hubli-Miraj Express)/2780(Goa Express), by running it with 2725 Siddhaganga Express up to Hubli. Fine, if there is a better alternative but this need should be urgently addressed.

    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...
