A new Andal bypass line is under construction near Bakhtarnagar cabin. The line on far left is the new line.

Yes adding a extra RORO service at the Khana link cabin to the UP slow line in the BWN-ASN section, would definitely bolster connectivity with Shantiniketan area with the Shipanchal area.

Another thing that has to be done ASAP is the alternate DC line being built quickly so that the train services between DHN & RNC can be seamless and increased in load. The existing line is on it's last leg and more and more services are being introduced on this line.
...
more...

New trains like JSME-VSG and the existng running trains on the DC line are running at a great risk, and the expected date of completion of the reallignment i.e 2027 might be a bit too late I am afraid. Who knows whether the existing DC line may survive for that long...

For the new DC line, bypass at GMO is being considered. But the main bottleneck is the river bridge near CRP, which slows trains down considerably.

Of Dashboards I can only share that of VB and Shatabdi trains operated in Eastern Region. PRIMES doesn't hold any long term data of other train types for reasons known only to CRIS. Max. occupancy of other trains record in archive is of 3-4 days which I guess is also available in IRCTC Charts.

Hmm, with around 60/63% APJL means diversity of intermediate travellers were more. Can also be understood while observing the segmentation.

Volvos serve a particular niche segment of travellers. In terms of comfort and travel time, trains always have edge over buses in similar classes in this belt.

Savordem to Kalem is fully double electric line.
From Kalem no works but from Kulem doubling works have started. Yeah the route passes through forests but still I would say it's much easier compared to Majorda Vasco coz no houses nearby so people protesting issue will not be there. If necessary forest clearances are obtained the work can be completed in 6 to 9 months. It's hardly 7 to 8 kms.

Mostly they will merge the double line from Cansaulim side to Majorda on the same single exisiting line coming from VSG and same line will be used as it is used right now. Moreover Madgaon to Majorda section uses automatic signalling to ease up congestion coming from KR and SWR. I don't think just because VSG is doubling they will lay another line because there won't be speed up there as a major halt is given to every train at Madgaon so every train slows down from Majorda Jn.

Yep all sections are electrified now just the commissioning but still no use if small sections are electrified because Vasco to Kulem can be given electric run but they won't waste resources until whole stretch from VSG to Tinai Ghat electrified. From Kulem to Kalem it is doable not much interference but Railways should check with Forest Dept. for the clearance asap and if double line creates hurdle for wild animals speed restrictions can be imposed to balance things out.

Atleast now SWR should stop crying and start running some more trains to VSG. This will create some confidence among Goans about SWR.
They should start by pre covid era passenger trains like VSG BGM, VSG Karwar and restore MAS express back to VSG.

Re# 6044642-17              
Yes 🙌 all trains can be resumed and to begin with VSG Karwar can be resumed within 1 week if they want because 16595 Panchaganga Express from Bengaluru to Karwar comes as Kawar (8:30) to Madgaon (9:45) special train in morning and returns back from Madgaon (16:30) to Karwar (17:45) . So this can be extended easily removing slack of 15 mins from Madgaon and adding 40-50 mins to reach Vasco from Madgaon and vice-versa.
