nowadays many GRs are running with duranto coaches, so there should be no problems.. They have also manufactured many 3AC economy coaches for Lko duranto, then theres no problem with manufacturing such coaches for GR..

**An approach by two: The Double Decker Blog**
Life was perfectly balanced on its monotone with nothing interesting on the sideways to bring about an incline. The faint ray of change came from a weekend that didn't have much planned in, and a crazy mind.
How often do you meet someone sitting idle and out of the blue getting to check the availability of a random train, on a random stretch?
Mandore had RAC 16 on JP-DLI on 14.04.2013 and THIS implied a trip planned.

railway station, the choice being made because of its proximity to my place.
It was only after 30 minutes of capturing a rusted ICF vehicle and a Tiger faced Locomotive that we could drag ourselves to the important job, the PRS.
PRS not because we lost our debit cards, nor because we wanted to apply for concessions.
Its just that neither of us had guts to explain the transaction to our parents, who were unaware of this whole nuisance. (And I've no explanations ready for the day they reach to this blog as a result of wild surfing on the internet either *gulp*).
Traversing through a long queue and a not-so-customer-friendly-clerk we were finally out with the parentally-non-legitimate permit to our first ever exclusively-railfanning-trip.

Suppose you have been given enough previlige by the god/almighty that whatever be the waiting your ticket will always confirm out of HO(popularly known as Headquarters)/EQ/Some special quota.
At the same time you know about your travel plan well in advance which is not going to change and confirmed berths are available then.
What will you do?You will take a confirmed ticket very much well in advance ,say 2 months.Or will you take a very high waitlisted ticket and get it confirmed out of HO (assumption:God has given you this power).

Re# 760922-8                  
I think the sparks are generated due to the speedy flow of electric current. When the electrons collide at high speed, they generate sparks. AC wires are nothing but 25k volts of current flowing meaning electrons moving at super fast speed. Panto touches d wires and sparks are generated when the flow of electrons are disturbed....

Neither good, nor bad. Its normal. Any of the pantos can be used by the loco, be it front or rear.

guys, can you tell a suggestion to improve the status of kochuvely station, trivandrum? comparing to central its a big station, but no connectivity. my suggestion is that every train including the rajadhani should stop there, that will naturally improve connectivity.

Re# 759187-5                  
Kochuveli station is being developed as an alternative to the already saturated Trivandrum Central Station.

Since KCVL is just a few kms from TVC, there is no need to stop all trains at KCVL except passenger trains.

KCVL has a lot of trains starting/ terminating and as such the capacity is enough.

The allocations now being made by RB is too less to carryout developmental works at KCVL and hence only one PF functions....

Mindchow of the day:
The Cost of Shreesanth Express is more than that of an entire RO RO rake.

Reason:
Shreesanth Express charges Rs. 10 lakh for one delivery (6 deliveries = 60 lakh) while for a RO RO rake with 40 trucks is 40 x Rs 20000 avg cost per truck = Rs 8 lakhs.

The cost is more when considering the misnomer "express." Sree was merely a glorified passenger, maybe fast passenger.
