Because it has scheduled halt at aligarh jn. So in case it proceeds before 22435 at cnb it need to be overtaken somewhere that's how precedence work right?

See, 22435's schedule is too tight so even with a bit of disturbance - it gets delayed.

On the other hand BSBS AGC VB's line gets cleared by the help of 22435, so it runs freely without much disturbance.

more thing is 22435 is a whole ass 20 Coacher train on the other hand BSBS AGC VB is just 8 Coacher, it gets a bit of an advantage with that too.

AYC - ANVT VB's TT was bad. It had too much slack, it could've easily went upto New Delhi just behind BSB - NDLS VB.

But even normal Superfast trains are faster than AYC - ANVT VB.

- ANVT VB's slack could've been reduced but the slack got confirmed by the help of ALJN halt.

Although, it's run is not too bad, still a bit disappointing for VB.

Before ALJN was added it could've been done. Now no hope nor chance,
Infact I expect Tundla Etawah to be added pretty soon.

It still reaches ANVT sometimes ~30 mins before. The problem with AYC ANVT VB is that it is bound to trail LJN Shatabdi and the later itself has become quite slow over the years.

66 Pairs, 132 VB trains. 72 i.e. 36 pairs are loss making.

Profit making 60 i.e. 30 pairs = 45.45%
Loss making 72 i.e. 36 pairs = 54.55%
Profit/Loss ratio = 45.45/54.55 = 0.833.

Since 16/4/24 IR is keeping profit & loss record of VB trains a secret.
The Railway Ministry in India has not maintained separate revenue generation records for Vande Bharat trains since 16/4/24.

Wait, Lucknow - Allahabad is getting full in this VB? I think this is one of the only 2 trains one can sanely take to reach PRYJ proper [not Sangam railway station]; other being Triveni Express but that takes twice the time. Still, with 2 ICEs and dozens of bus services, I didn't expect many people to opt for this VB in the afternoon that is.

It's a decent train to catch for GKP from LKO during evening but for mornings, the ICE only takes an hour more and it's CC is

significantly cheaper than VB's base alternative even.

It had good patronage on the weekends, and poor on the weekdays. Today VB will have even better patronage on the weekends and extended weekends, but I guess the weekdays will be less patronized. It is difficult to find a place in the Tamralipta Express. This route along with Howrah Haldia should be considered more for Namo Bharat Rapid.

They should be running more fast EMU/passenger trains from HWH/KGP for Digha, especially on weekends. I once had to catch a connecting passenger from Panskura to Digha and it was more saturated than a Bombay local. I think a Haldia bound EMU was also standing then, but that didn't have much crowd.

Haldia is an industrial town, I think compared to the tourist potential that Digha has.
