Re# 573315-6                  
it will be useful only if it runs on time, and that depends on punctuality of Farakka Express.
BTW, Farakka Express shifted from Dli to Hry(Bhiwani) to DLi to CDG.
Mandore too can be extended to UMB or CDG

Re# 374897-5                  
Free rake available for the day. No space in Old Delhi station for berthing during day. So create a special to a station so that the rake remains there for the day. Just my guess

Its right, same with 09721/09722 .
The JP-DEE SF Special 09741/09742 send back to Rewari as special....
DLI-PNP special rake used is of DLI-Malda Town Farakka Express, to decrease congestion in Delhi area. In coming years, many more trains, esp Intercity types will be extended to NCR cities like Meerut, Gurgaon, Rohtak, Hisar etc...

if that was the case then why did they curtail the run of mldt bhiwani farakka express to mldt dli farakka express?earlier too it ran empty from dli,but still a few pax were booked for haryana...initially they run,then curtail and then run it empty as special??in earlier run upto bhiwani,there was no problem of berthing at dli either....

Re# 374897-10                  
Thats right. The extension upto Bhiwani was a case of more loss, as its far more farther than PNP..
The philosophy behind its extension to Bhiwani was the tenure of Late Sh Bansi Lal as RM in 70s, nothing else..Bhiwani was his home town and regular constituency.
Now, his influence is lesser....so railways decided to reduce losses, by opting it to park the train at PNP than Bhiwani..
This is my analysis..........

Re# 374897-15                  
This is not the case. inlieu of Farakka they give Kalindi Express to Bhiwani.
The problem with Faraka was that it got late by many hours many times (Specially in Winter) and it alos delay it in reverese.
By Giving Kalindi to Bhiwani they serve the purpose as its much small distance train and also by running farraka as special they can cancel it any day without bothering much about it.

Must be the rake of Delhi Ranikhet Express 15013/15014, which was earlier running as Delhi- Bikaner Special, or Farakka Express, to optimise the parking space in Delhi/...

If they use the ranikhet rake, then coach comp wont be the same. Ranikhet arrives at DLI around 5:15 and its tough to remove the ac first and all from the middle.
To add, Ranikhet express is not having a PC.

Yes, Ranikhet Exp is having AC-I accomodation too..but earlier this rake was used as Delhi Bikaner Special too..there is no issue of timings as it arrives Delhi at 03.55 hrs and departs at 22.40, well within Arr/Dep of 04031/32 at Delhi.......

But when it ran as BKN special, the rake had AC 1 acco. and no pantry. I dont think so they will add a pantry car ( as mentioned in the coach comp) just for a 3 hr duration.

Delhi Panipat Special is not running with PC, and AC-I coach can be disconnected or locked for DLI-PNP-DLI route.
However, Farakka Xpress looks more likely,,,,

041120118701.jpgTrain running more then 2.30hrs today... Reached Adarsh Nagar at 8:45am.
Today's rake sharing for this train is derived from "Malda-Delhi-Malda" Farakka Express. Inspite of Green Signal, Train halted at Adarsh Nagar Station (ANDI) for almost 4mins. Seems the reason could be chain pulling though not confirmed. Today's link was Ghaziabad (GZB) WAP-7 #30214.
Note: All of the rakes were pasted with the Advertisement of "Pataka Tea".

I think lack of parking space in Delhi area is the only reason, otherwise, they have to haul empty rake . Moreover, the secondary maintenance must be undertaken at Panipat Jn..
