Unjustified on part of IR
This train should start from CST instead with stops at Dadar, Thane, Kalyan , Bhiwandi and Vasai Road.
If Dibrugarh Rajdhani can have loco reversal at Barauni, Bhubaneshwar Rajdhani can have loco reversal at Kharagpur instead of raking bypass in both cases, this train should also take loco reversal at Kalyan.
So that CR can enjoy priority of a

Wholeheartedly agreed that when fast trains do not halt at Kopar, giving halts to long distance trains is a distant dream...
But Just like Vidhyavihar & Tilak Nagar caters to passengers who wish to board from LTT, similarly, I think Kopar (Upper) station can definitely cater to CR passengers for trains which moves from WR to KR & vice versa. Both stations viz. Panvel & Vasai Road are around 45 kms apart from Kalyan/Dombivli/Thane. Panvel station accomodates passengers from Harbour line while Vasai Road caters to WR passengers. Even though trains pass through Kopar (Upper), due to no provision of halts, CR pax suffer.
Given

the ample space available there, the existing two platforms can very well be extended to accomodate 24 coachers and necessary infrastructure can be provided . A two minute halt should not disturb the train running schedule.
Even trains coming from WR to CR like YPR GR, JU SBC/MYS express etc. can halt either at Kopar (upper) or at Kalyan. Kopar (upper) can thus be seen as a n alternative to decongest Kalyan Jn to some extent. As slow services are already available from Kopar (Lower) the connectivity with distant CR suburbs is well established.

Nobody will disagree to see a priority train like rajdhani starting from CR. But the loco reversal at a busy station like Kalyan (EMU based traffic to/from NE/SE line) is next to impossible due to too much of congestion, just because the station was never planned to be a loco/ rake reversal junction...unlike Barauni, Kharagpur etc.

    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...
