Indian Railways is the largest commercial employer in the world with 16 lac(1.6mil) employees. Thats roughly the population of Bhutan, Tonga and Qatar put together.
Vasco da Gama is the end point of South Western Railways. This is the direction that points to the south.

A daily SF must be started btw Vasco and Mumbai CST via KR. Currently all the 3 trains start from Madgaon plus many south bound trains pass Madgaon. Its really inconvinient for Vasco passangers to board trains at Madgaon with heavy luggage. What are your views guys.

Goa is India's No 1st Tourist Attraction Spot, which Promotes tourism and is also a Great Revenue generator For Railways. But Still Always is Neglected.
There is Very Much Need for the Following.
1. Bypass Line B/w Karmali and Vasco D Gama Since Vasco is the Biggest City and Important Tourist Spot for Tourists in Goa With Lots of Good Hotels
2. New Terminal at Verna as New Panjai Terminus For Load Sharing With Madgaon and Vasco
3. Introduction of the Following trains for Promotion in Tourism in Entire Goa
a) New Delhi Madgaon Rajdhani Express via Kota-Vadodara-Panvel-Ratnagiri
...
Read more...
b) Madgaon Mumbai Shatabdi Express via Ratnagiri-Panvel
c) Ahmedabad Hubli Daily Superfast Express via Vasai-Madgaon-Kulem-Castle Rock-Londa
d) Vishakapatnam Vasco D Gama Superfast Express via Vijayawada-Guntur-Dronachellam-Guntakal-Hubli-Londa
e) Madgaon Trivandrum Daily Superfast Express via Mangalore-Ernakulam
f) Indore Coimbatore Superfast Express via Dewas-Maksi-Bhopal-Bhusawal-Panvel-Madgaon-Mangalore-Palakkad
4. Setting up of Konkan Railway as an Independent Authority with no Corporation.
5. Development of Madgaon as World Class Station

Re# 718046-3                  
Agreed with few minor changes....
1. Goa Rajdhani urgently required but via RN - PNVL --- KYN ---- BSL --- BPL.

2. Bypass line between KRMI n VSG is also required.

3. KR should take up the survey project for Panaji Terminus... From Pernem, this rail line can bifurcate and run parallel to NH4 to connect Panaji. It should however terminate just after Mandovi river bridge and not enter Panaji City to retain its glory. Few trains like Goa Rajdhani, JanShatabdi and few more trains can terminate here...

3.(f)Indore Coimbatore Superfast Express should run via Dewas-Ujjain-Ratlam-Vasai rd-panel-ratnagiri as that route is much shorter and will have more pax passengers.

One more biggest advantage of running trains to Goa is.....it's considered a "Holiday Home" for young and the old,for couples or for guys who are on their own,for families or for friends and since i came to know from the guys in here that A.C trains is where the gravy(money) comes from....Railways can maximize the revenues by having more 1A and 2As and people would be willing to spend those extra few bucks to enjoy their vacations.

Yes... its d need of d hour.... our RM is interested in introducing more trains to his hometown rather than providing Revenue generating connectors.... all the buses charge around 1500 Rs daily between mumbai n goa n still run full....

Re# 718046-10                  
The buses travelling between Mumbai Madgaon charges 1500 Rs Daily and in vacation time the cost is more+The NH17 that is Mumbai Goa Highway passes through dangerous ghats, small bridges, etc. Indeed there should be trains announced between Mumbai Madgaon/Karwar for passangers can travel safely in less cost.

Ya you are right the highway route is not a safe one. New trains must be introduced btw MAO to Mumbai but atleast one train daily to Mumbai must also be given to Vasco.

GOA needs a dedicated Rajdhani.Goa is frequented by both Locals as well as Foreigners.It's one of the most sought after tourist location in the country and it would be a win - win situation for all(Railways and Passengers).

I know this suggestion will draw some flak,but why not extend the AK Rajdhani to VSG/MAO with extra augmented coaches,while at the same time preserving a quota for the BOMBAY region.Anyway,people seem displeased with this train lately.

That may not work out Vivek. People may seem displeased but still AK has got good demand and more over it belongs to WR and there will be issues like RSA and split services...
According to me, only a new Raj can solve the purpose.

I think the newly announced Madgaon Mangalore Intercity should have been introduced as Vasco Mangalore as it would have connected directly also Panjim the capital of Goa is closer to Vasco.

A small Wish for KR
A New line between Vasco and Ratnagiri as landslide occure on main line trains can be diverted via this line but all stops should be there on this line from Karmali To Nivsar and will join the main line between Nivsar and Ratnagiri + can divert some trains through this route to remove traffic
how is this idea?

Of all chains I liked /chain/56/35/511
