Great
Earlier the train used to leave Vskp at 1930 and arrive at 1030( approx timings) and return in afternoon. After lockdown a slot is made at 1530 Vskp for all weeklies towards BBS. So this train is arriving at morning at Tatanagar. SER instead of providing dep in evening made it to leave in morning. Associations have put proposal to make it triweekly and restore to afternoon or evening as Tatanagar Allepey is now delinked and proposal is also put up for triweekly.

Now not remained suitable for KDJR, BSBX, DPS and CBSA people to return from TATA in second half. This was the only train between 10:00 am and 3:00 pm from TATA to go towards CBSA/DPS that too a weekly train. Now even that has been scrapped off in favour of long route passengers. A daily train towards BBN/GUA/KDJR leaving TATA between 12:00 noon and 2:00 pm is badly needed. If someone couldn't board train no. - 12021, HWH - BBN Jan Shatabdi Express, they have now to wait another 7 hours 15 minutes on Sunday and 5 hours on other weekdays to catch the next train from TATA.

Yes better then interior route for connectivity of SBP Rourkeka and should be made triweekly. Return from Taranagar should be in afternoon to suit the timings or alternate to Tata Allepey.

This train in down line gets too much rescheduled, this train should be extended to Hyderabad and it can be possible because its time slot matches with 22850 and 12774. Should be controlled by Tata SER.

Let Tatanagar division introduce Biweekly from Tata to Benguluru via Raipur Ballashah and SC. Vskp has enough of demand for tatanagar for dedicated train. The present Tata Yesvantpur weekly should also be diverted via Raipur SC.

Re# 6002421-5              
Totally agreed. And should be categorized as SF instead of Mail/Exp. Because on this route most of the trains run as express and gets heavily delayed. Example:08840 running by 8+ hrs late.

Re# 5793107-37              
I suppose that the reason was that on Mondays, they would have to block 2 PFs. Swarna Rekha Exp already blocks the PF for nearly 4-5 hrs and this also used to block for 6 hrs. They needed additional PF and free lines to handle TATA GODA Exp (introduced after the timings change of TATA VSKP). This is what I suppose, I may be completely wrong as well

Agree
Already Tata-VSKP passengers were let down once Tata-Allp daily service was stopped. At least Tata-Allp had conveninent timings both ways. Tata-ERS doesnt go to VSKP which is an issue. Also odd time of dep from Tata.

Tata-VSKP Exp again is a day train reaching around midnight which is again inconvenient.

passengers have to got to Rourkela to catch DHN-Allp, HTE-ERS and other Bangalore bound trains or else for direct option take the Weekly Tata-YPR . Overall the passengers from Tata goin to VSKP are now left with bad options

Yes correct. I missed that. Passengers would obviously prefer direct option any time rather than break journey and getting down and then boarding. Overall passengers from Jamshedpur & outskirts, Sini, CKP have been at a loss with a lack of daily train to VSKP.

SER seems to be kidding or making the passengers fool with the new time table of 20816 VSKP - TATA Express. Speeds of 90 Kmph, 74 Kmph, 59 Kmph have been kept between some stations in the section from Jakhapura to Dangoaposi, whereas trains can travel only at speed of 30 Kmph in this section due to speed constraint. That is why the train always used to get more than 3 hours late in reaching Dangoaposi. See what time has been allotted to this train and what time it actually takes especially in this section -
1. SKND - HCNR - allotted - 53 mins, it actually takes 1 Hr, 30 mins,
2.
...
more...
HCNR - KDJR - allotted - 33 mins, it actually takes 1 Hr, 20 mins,
3. KDJR - BSPX - allotted - 1 Hr, 25 mins, it actually takes 2 Hrs,
4. BSPX - DPS - allotted - 43 mins, it actually takes 1 Hr.
With present time table, it will always reach TATA more than 3 hours late and in the return, it will reach VSKP more than 5 hours late.
