You are completley gone away from topic. Earlier in sankranti time its given 11 hrs, that's what i told. I am very much aware how specials will run in SCR sector.
Who is that average passenger ??

I have not gone off the topic but its reality in IR with staff crunch working for extra hrs and loco availability how are they going to run specials in the already crowded lines without proper allocation. often there are reports in eenadu that there is just 2 TC for entire train particularly for specials. Vsp-LTT took nearly a yr to stabilise operations after its introduction and used to run 4hrs late every schedule. In shankranthi time it may have given 11hrs but is it possible with all the stoppages?? The travel time given is reasonable. average passenger is general public who commutes and does nt knw much about bogies, design , engine there will be 75% in this category.

I don't know, why do they require a LHB coach for a weekly once SC-SHM AC express. Instead the LHB coach can be used for VSKP duranto and do a rake sharing with SC - LTT duronto. This way VSKP duronto can run 5 days a week....this is just commonsense which railways lack.

Because its from SHM
