Visakhapatnam - Mumbai LTT SF (Via SC)/12749⇒22819

Then These Trains Should also be Extended till Vishakapatnam and Kakinada as Bhuwaneshwar also do not Deserve these trains
a) Bhuwaneshwar Rajdhani via TATA
b) Bhuwaneshwar Rajdhani via BKSC
c) Dhanbad bhuwaneshwar Garibrath
d) New Delhi Bhuwaneshwar Duronto Express

I think this is again written to flare up the regional sentiments. BTW who are you to decide which place deserves what kind of trains.

Some admin is requested to lock this blog as it will prompt regionalism

Please avoid controversial comments in this site. Extension of trains are the decision of railway board. Every state deserves its own share of trains and there is no need to post such comments.
Thanks

Its disgusting to add a stop for every 20 km. One in west godavari dist its stopping at 5 places. Where as running non stop between VSKP-RJY.
Its high time it needs stops at Tuni, SLO, AKP , DVD also.

Thanks, Updated...

Agreed instead of kaiklur akp/SLo should have been given

yes, inka daily chesinaa aa thokkalo route lo thippiutharemo.

Many stops between Bhimavaram and Vijayawada! and no single stop between Vijayawada and Kazipet!

SLO deserves a stoppage.

Another halt due to political pressure!! #Sigh

Even no halt at between VSKP-RJY
DVD,AKP,TUNI,SLO needs halt.

Train is routed through this route bcoz of polictial pressure

If you are mentally prepared to travel, you can. The more GEN coaches, the more rush.

Gen are mostly vacant when train starts from LTT, I think you can manage to find a seat in Gen @Pune...

Or what about boarding directly from ltt...?? What you think will i get a seat in ur if i directly board from ltt...??

Why do you wanna do such a thing??? Travel from Pune to Vijayawada or Hyderabad in a bus or Shatabdi and you have plenty of options in reaching VSKP via train.

Even though six general coaches, this train is having much more rush. If it is possible for you to go on 8th May instead of 9th, reservation of sleeper class is available on 8th may of KOP-HYB express. So you can go upto Solapur or Kurduwadi by 12157 Hutatma Express and pick up 01031 Kolhapur - Hyderabad Express.

Actually i am nt from vskp. I am travelling from pune to balasore. I have to catch sc-shm exp from sc on 10th may,so i hav to reach sc first & as timings are matching this train is best.

I am sorry.....i overlooked the details.

You can take a chance, else best go to LTT.

sincere advice, go for tatkal. you never know how much rush will be there in Gen class.

Ok...by the way can u suggest me any other trains or chains for 10th of may or 9th of may between pune to bls or mumbai to bls....???

Hey i just saw that the pairing train i.e vskp ltt exp departs vskp on wednesday and reach ltt on thursday. Am i right that this same rake which reaches ltt,departs renumbered at 12.25p.m...?? If its true then for my convenience of seat,i would board this train first till ltt and then after pax get down,i would take a seat.

Yeah, do that. With TAT of 2 hrs, the same rake starts again from LTT.

Yes same rake will return. Its having just 1 hr 30 min turn around, better get in at Pune and go to LTT, then come back.

Is lonavala a confirmed stop for this train..?? Or its a luck by chance halt....i.e if lucky it will stop otherwise will just pass by.....

Lonavala is a tech stop for unbanking the Bankers.

Yes lonavala is a confirmed stop for all trains, the bankers are removed here.

100% it will stop, for detaching the banker locos.

Independent rake so it can be augmented.

The WL is going high. One of the fastest in this sector.

Guys from mumbai, Pune region please have a look at it.

Quite Not Possible between KZJ-SC Section. because in that time Daily rajadani is Their from NDLS-SBC So Definitely Crossing will be there Regularly. If this Train Late by 15min Then this Train will be stop at KZJ for 20 min and give Signal after AP Express Departs From KZJ. So ECOR will not prefer this timings between KZJ-SC Section.

Ya it need some change.
18:50 at SC is possible.

I think this is possible.

good timings

I think this timing will be better Between KZJ-SC Section
KZJ 17.05 17.07
SC 20.00 20.15

The present train taking 2 hr 28 min....Why u r proposing 2 hr 53 min ??

wl pax can go to sc after office work

Because if the train is kept Late By 50 min also . It will given first preference by keeping krishna/ telangana express at kZJ and reaches on time (OR) early To secunderabad and will pass through begumpet before mumbai express arrives To begumpet.

good suggestion. If it can cover the distance in 23hrs...2 sets of rakes can do daily run!!

still they need 3 rakes !!!

Proposed to skip BVRT and in its place COA_CSTM bi-weekly may take its place.

my bad..you are right!! train cant run 24x7 :P

Will overtake East coast, Excellent Timings Bro

it can skip VKB and SUR(odd timing). these stations can be halts for COA-LTT.

official proposal? will have to wait and see how these additional 7 weekly services do on the Coastal AP- Mumbai route!!

This train should have a stop at warangal junction (WL)....

I feel the Route for this will stay and CCT-LTT will take EE-GNT route...But this train will have slight TT change for sure...

Newly announced CCT-LTT biweekly express is via Solapur or any other route?

That they have not mentioned high chances it would be via SUR...Lets wait for TT..

Already narsapur-Nagarsol getting daily. Another daily to SC on same route with 1 hr gap is waste.
Also single line cannot take the load. Better CCT-LTT take this train slot, then it can run via EE.

Agree if this one takes short route via EE would be very good for end to end travellers,which i had mentioned first as soon as it was announced in budget when our discussion is there...Lets see what happens..

FYI /blog/post/681108/9

agree...hopefully the VSKP-LTT frequency increase n CCT-LTT sees the light of the day soon!! But Im really keen to see the patronage..Do we have enough demand to absorb 7 new services on Coasta to Mumbai?

Starting CCT-LTT is easy compared to VSKP-LTT frequency increase since former requires only one rake and the later requires two full rakes more..Hope both get materialized at lease by second half of the year...

Lets see. I feel VSKP-LTT gets Purushothham exp rakes once it gets LHB.

Emiti malli vadesinave :(

ECoR....grrrrrrrr

Anthe kada mari! :(

If its so then It might start very soon as Puru got all the four LHB Rakes

ya they can start by july. Lets hope it becomes daily soon.

This Train & NS-NSL are routed through BVRT & GDV because of MP Bapiraju. So i don't think that there are chances to change route.
KKLR doesn't have stop which saved almost 15-20 min. Its one of the fastest Train in this route once i boarded at AKVD at around 3:15-3:30 PM Train runnig late, I need to catch Navajeevan at BZA at last i reached at 4:45pm and caught Navajaeevan.
great speed

There is only 1 2A and 3A coach shown in IRI. but there are 2 2A and 3A coaches in indianrail

Anytime after 1st July...

After ICF rakes of Purushottam Express will be available. Purushottam Express will get LHB rakes soon.

THANK U

Done...

Incorrect.
.
That site is notorious for providing false info about coaches.

FC was there before now removed....Official site has so many such false info...

Theres no booking allowed since long..Whenever booking is allowed, pls do inform so that CC can be updated.

It has removed sir even availability doesn't show FC..

Ok. Verified again. When tried for reservation, it said "RT CLS SUSPNDED".

No there is no FC
