We cannot change this train to LHB as this site is not affiliated to Indian Railways. This is a site run by rail enthusiasts.
As far as this train is concerned just see my screen name. I'm a die hard fan of this train but sadly this train carries slip coaches between Guntakal to Vasco Da Gama untill and unless those are cancelled this train won't get LHB rakes.
This is the longest running ICF train of SER zone now unfortunately still there are no positive signs of the slip getting...

cancelled and this train getting LHB rakes. 😔

Re# 6032785-2              
Also second problem with the slip is this is a high in demand train but due to slip coaches number of coaches in the train have been restricted to only 19 that too without a pantry car for such a long 40 hour journey.

Timings of this train are differing on IRCTC compared to IRI at many stations like SRC, KGP, VZM, BZA, etc.
Are IRI timings wrong ?
