Question 1: Why there is an need of using this train as Shirdi Saibaba package (see pics 1&2) whereas MYS SNSI and MAS SNSI via KJM is there to cater Bengaluru passengers to Shirdi/Manmad? What is the use of these both weeklies? It will put even more additional strain for end to end passengers. To add even fuel to fire, SWR was running with revised CC from today onwards.( See 3rd pic) All persons can't afford Rajdhani and all the three KSK's took 6 hours more than KK. Hence KK was an ideal train. But the owner SWR itself destroyed this train by reducing 11 SL to 7 SL in the name of standardisation. Except Chandigarh KSK, both KSK were reduced to 6-7 SL post LHB. It will affect on common man on affordable travel. An train to Delhi with more SL coaches via old KSK route very much needed in...
more... future for cater Bengaluru passengers. Also Bengaluru's growth was fastest too with International standards. There are about 31 trains from Mumbai to New Delhi, 13 trains from Kolkata to New Delhi , 11 trains from Hyderabad to New Delhi, 10 trains from Chennai to New Delhi but shockingly Bengaluru has only 7 trains to New Delhi. Very very Bad Karma done by SWR.
