A query to members. What is the criteria to decide as to which zone will manager the running of a new train as and when it starts ? Is it availability of rakes ?
Another query is whether 2 different zones can combine or equally contribute rakes if there is a shortage and there is a need to start a train. I feel lots of time in-spite of demands, many zones shy away from starting them due to shortage of rakes.
For example: If a new train needs to be...

All is decided by RB, contributing factors are timings, availability of slot, availability of pitlines and other maintenance facilities.
No 2 zones cannot share rakes as train is allotted one zone.
Rolling stock is manufactured by RCF/ICF and order is placed by RB for that zone and zone can arrange for already available stock.
Even the passing zones play imp role with timetable

As a protocol:
Division sends demand to Zone
Zone to RB and finally Ministry decides as Politics is supreme.

It is indeed a challenge to fix up a time if the passing zones also have a say on fixing time table. If the trains cover long distances for eg north to south or east to west etc, there there are so many zones/divisions through which it passes. Even if one or two of them do not give their approvals, entire thing would go for a toss.
Actually, very less cases like that, if a train has to run, it will run
