Railways had a good chance to speed up Charminar which was running in the same timings as it did during its ICF rake days.
Instead they have managed to make the train slower end to end.

My timings for Coromandel would be something like this
MAS: 09.15
BZA: 15.25/15.35
VSKP: 21.15/21.35

In the late 70s TN used to start from Chennai at 7AM and reach NDLS by 12.35PM. 29hrs and 35mts.
Around 1987 TN started from MAS at 21.00 and reached NDLS at 06.45
Return TN started at 22.30 and reached at 08.10

1986 TN would start at 21.00 and reach NDLS at 5.15 and GT used to start at 17.00 and reach at 06.45

The arrival times were reversed in the 1987 Timetable. TN slowed down and GT speeded up thus preventing the overtake

Now with LHB rakes, this train can run slightly faster. Similarly 12759's arrival at SC is at 7.15, however the train gets invariably delayed and reaches at 7.45 to 8.00AM mostly.
Can this train's departure and timings be changed to something like this?
MAS: 18.40
GDR: 20.55/21.00
BZA:

    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...
