* DSR-YPR, SDAH-NDLS, PUNE-NZM, NZM ERS Durontos run mostly on Raj routes where they get either lesser or equal priority than Raj Express.
* CSTM-HWH, HWH-YPR, PUNE-HWH, LTT-ALD Durontos are kings on their routes (110 kmph) with top most priority and no competition with other premium trains. They are Duronto by name and Rajdhani by priority. CSTM-HWH 75/74kmph, HWH-PUNE 74/71 kmph, LTT-ALD 70/69 kmph HWH-YPR 67 kmph. These Durontos too shall get running speed of 130kmph in future.
* Avg speed of 75kmph by CSTM-HWH Duronto is appreciable due to fact that it

runs at 110kmph only to give an avg speed of 75kmph.

Re# 2896121-56              
Correct....Durontos should be primarily run on routes where they get the priority of a Rajdhani....otherwise no use....they will be just like any other Superfast train....
