Humsafar Rake staying for half an hour at a place located almost 5 kilometres from Rewa City Centre that too late in night, let's just say Rewa folks won't be that excited. 😂😂🙏
Had the train been announced well in advance we could've expected atleast average patronage from this train. Although using this rake for a service to Ahmedabad, Surat or Mumbai could've been more beneficial for Bhopal than this one.
People of Rewa & Satna don't prefer Special Trains unless it's absolute emergency, they should've tried this Special via Itarsi, Jabalpur route...

to Rewa. In order to decrease the rush of Rewanchal Express they can introduce a Bi- Weekly/Tri- Weekly Normal Superfast via Jabalpur, Itarsi route from Rewa, there's no need of running a Fully AC Train from Rewa and if Railways feels it's needed then it must be via Jabalpur atleast.
What do you guys think ?

WCR must have used PNBE Special's prospective rake at least instead, that would have sought many more passengers. And yes announcing the Special at last moment is a big mistake.
Humsafar rake is going to be used for much hyped ADI Humsafar for sure post this election drama, and Taiji is gonna make sure even that runs via LMNR (INDB). :D
IR seems to have entirely forgotten the BPL-KTE route via ET. Yea, LR at ET is an issue, but introducing no further trains over this section is not worthwhile.

Puri was the last train introduced over this route in 2011. Post that all trains like ADI PNBE, Bhuj SHM, Rewa INDB, BPL SGRL and Humsafar were introduced via SGO.
