Currently In IR so many trains are running with LHB Coaches in which some trains avg speed is below 50. And some prestigious and old SF's still running on ICF coaches (Ex: Tamilnadu/Karnataka etc) Do you think IR is justifying LHB which capable of 150+ KMPH by allotting trains to these low avg speed trains? In my opinion IR should LHBfy old SF's and 1000+ Kms running Weeklies or Bi-Weeklies First and next to New Trains. Am i right please suggest with voting.

Average speed is not a criteria for allotting LHB rakes.
There are no priorities for alloting LHB coaches. Each zone will allot LHB rakes to a train based on the maintenance capacity of the CDO, remaining codal life of the ICF rakes, staff availability and other operational factors. LHB coaches are an upgrade to ICF coaches and all trains will have to be upgraded to LHB coaches, be it a prestigious SF or an all-stopping passenger.
Too much attention has been given in the media about the '160kmph+' capable LHB coaches. LHB

coaches were NOT IMPORTED for their speed capabilities. They were imported for their modern design and as an upgrade to the ICF coaches. The higher speed capacity is just a secondary advantage (ICF Shatabdi rakes too ran at 140+ kmph with the Bhopal Shatabdi).
Raj and Shatabdi trains were first converted to LHB as the initial designs of the LHB coaches were only for A/C coaches and IR needed a lot of time to design non A/C versions of the same coaches.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...
