Fallacies in IR:-
1. MAS-UBL via RU-GTL is 708 kms, where as via YPR is 833 kms. No train in Shorter Route.
2. Punjab-Haryana-Northern Rajasthan have plenty of alternate & shorter routes(politically/operationally feasible) for Trains, but trains running in these region always takes longer route. Why??
3. Khem Karan is one of the most agricultural area in India & Punjab. But Khem
...
more...
Karan has no rail connectivity(except Amritsar) to any other cities of Punjab & India. Why??
4. Earlier the Old Malda - Siliguri MG Line passed via Gazole-Raiganj-Dalkhola during 1945 before Partition. Why the BG link not established yet?? This can shorter Kolkata Siliguri route by 9 kms. 15-20 mins time can be saved.
5. Vijayawada - Bangalore Via Renigunta is 737 kms whereas via Guntur-Nandyal is 706 kms. Why this section is underutilized??
6. Unnao-Phaphamau-Jhanghai section via Dalmau-Unchahar can be used to run freight service from CNB till BSB. Why this line is not properly used??
add more plz.

Point 5 - BZA SBC via GNT NDL is a single line route. And its doublong is being taken up now. Once doubling done, we can expect more long distance trains.

Also it was Meter gauge before 2decades while most trains were already running through Gudur and tpty in broad gauge. Expecting good development financially for both goods and passengers enroute once doubled. Electrification may just add cost benefits.

1. The existing trains are SWR trains, they want to cover the most in their area instead of sharing with SCR.
5. Single line section from GNT - SBC. Already congested from GTL - SBC.
