KYQ-Pune Special that ran few years back, its route was better.
Yes this entire route don't have connectivity to Goa, but extending Duranto wil not connect many intermediate stations to Goa like CKP,ROU, JSG etc.. Duranto is not good if its the only train in the route, till now it was not like that.
A train with more stoppage and Non-AC Accommodation is better if it is the first train in the route.
