Trip from BZA to YPR during diverted run via RU-KPD on 3-11-2023:

Had to travel BLR, planned on weekend to go to MAS in GT and then VB/Shatabdi to SBC. I'm from Guntur and this is the general route I prefer. I avoid going via Guntakal/DMM.

time while I was checking tickets on Friday I observed Kondaveedu got diverted as it's showing booking from BZA only and Tatkal tickets are available. I booked the ticket for Kondaveedu from BZA - YPR and reached BZA in GNT-SC intercity on Friday.


17211 Kondaveedu Express arrived BZA around 17:25 and departed around 17:45 ahead of delayed 12511 and BZA- GDR intercity. After crossing KCC I checked whether it got 130 clearance for that run or not, but No. It's traveling at 110 kmph. Then I realised there will be overtakes of 12511 and GDR intercity.

Skipped Tenali And as expected got looped at Appikatla to get overtaken by 12511. Skipped Bapatla, Chirala.By this time GDR intercity trailing us very closely. Someone pulled chain just after crossing Chirala station so 17211 halted for good 10-15 min. Got looped at Vetapalem for GDR intercity overtake. Then I was expecting for OGL skip but we got looped on to PF2 in Ongole. Then I wondered what train is behind us that will be overtaking us. (Pls note On this day hwh-ypr is delayed for good 2hrs). Now I heard Sabari express announcement. Got overtaken in Ongole and later we started after good 30min halt trailing Sabari. Skipped OGL and halted in Gudur for 5-10min. Now the time is around 23:30 and I slept off.


I was expecting similar treatment from all zones so that it will be arriving at YPR around its scheduled time. But when I woke up randomly at 2.30am we were already in Jolarpettai. I got shocked. I heard announcement in JTJ of Kondaveedu 😂 some strange name they pronounced instead of Machilipatnam.



Finally train halted at KJM around 4.45am. At this point HWH YPR is 70km behind Kondaveedu. Lot of people were confused as everyone is expecting to get down at YPR. Finally when most of them realised half of the train easily got down at KJM.
Most of them are still sleeping at that time. Literally we reached BLR nearly 5hrs before time that too just 110kmph and with the overtakes.

I felt this train should be terminating in KJM or some station ahead of KJM.

Please share your thoughts.

on the same day I am in 07153 NS-SMVB I had expected OT of kondaveedu because of schedule arrival time of kondaveedu is 9:45 AM where this NS-SMVB is 9:30 AM at SMVB but after RU NTES didn't shown any update and this NS-SMVB is 2:45 min ahead and by the way KJM don't have any terminating PF only PF 1 is free for stoping trains and stopless trains will pass through PF 2 they are developing BNC with 3 to 5 terminal PF's and some 1 or 2 pitlines too and on that day there is no stop in that whole section BZA-YPR except technical stops at GDR/RU & JTJ due to loco pilot change

I lived I'm Benguluru from 2009 to 2014 and used to travel by bus from Bengaluru to Vja and journey time from Tin factory KJM to Vja is 10 to 11hrs and VJa to KJM 12hrs. In mainline the travel can travel in 11.5 hrs to KJM and 12hrs to Bengaluru central. and dep from VJA should be 1800 to 1900. Now that SMVT is opened to traffic they can introduce a train. Return from SMVT at 2000. I have quoted this many times.

Apart from Vja to SBC one more 4

Why is booking not allowed for 1st Nov'23 for Kondaveedu Express? IRCTC shows ISLDELETE(DIV) only for one day, i.e. Wed 01 Nov.

Thanks,
