Happy birthday to the RMM-TPTY express.

Happy birthday to RMM-TPTY express.

Nah, they're not the same slots, dude. The intercity slot shares its slot with SMVT three days a week.

Nahi bhai, dono slots alag hai. Intercity slot SMVT triweekly ke saath slot sharing kar raha hai.

1. We need to double the line capacity of TPTY KPD as a top priority, but it's not in our hands. It's up to the allocation of funds by the big bosses and their priorities (cargo lines get more attention because of the money they make from coal). 2. We gotta make both RMM bound trains run every day, no excuses. 3. Sapthagiri already has a thing going on with Tirupati Chennai during the middle of the day, and we can't cancel it. Same train does two trips in a day, ya know? 4. I don't get it - why does RSA arrive in Tirupati in the morning and leave late at night? Even though the PM got shifted, they still gotta keep it at Tirupati. They're thinking of doing RSA with another train at Kakinada. 5. PGT TPTY PM should be in PGT because there are too many trains in TPTY for PM. 6. Coimbatore intercity and SMVT should run every day, and we should switch the PM at each end. 7. Mangalore Tirupati is cool, but it can stop at Renigunta instead of going all the way to Tirupati. It should run for 3 days via Hassan. 8. VB should end its journey at Tirupati because it gets more passengers from Tirupati than Chennai. Only on Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, it gets some passengers between RU and Chennai, but for the other 4 days, it's only at 30-50% occupancy.

1. TPTY KPD ki line capacity ko double karna priority mein hona chahiye, lekin ye SCR ke haath mein nahi hai, ye RB ki funds allocation aur unke priority ke saath hai (cargo lines ko coal se revenue hone ke wajah se zyada dhyaan diya jata hai) 2. Dono RMM jane wali trainon ki frequency ko daily increase karna chahiye. 3. Sapthagiri ko already Tirupati Chennai ke saath RSA hai, jo dopahar mein hota hai aur ise cancel nahi kiya ja sakta hai. Ek rake din mein do trips karta hai. 4. RSA ko samajh nahi aaya, kyunki ye Tirupati COA/Subrahmanyan par subah aati hai aur raat ko der se chali jaati hai, chahe PM shift ho gaya ho ab bhi ise Tirupati mein stable rakhna padta hai. Wo Kakinada mein dusri train ke saath RSA ki planning kar rahe hain. 5. PGT TPTY PM PGT mein hona chahiye, kyunki TPTY mein bahut saari trains PM ke liye hai. 6. Coimbatore intercity aur SMVT dono ko PM ke saath roj chalaya jana chahiye, apne respective ends par. 7. Mangalore Tirupati ko Renigunta tak chalaya ja sakta hai, lekin 3 din via Hassan. 8. VB ko Tirupati par short terminate karna chahiye, kyunki occupancy Tirupati se aa rahi hai, phir Chennai se. Sirf Saturday, Sunday aur chhuttiyon mein hi occupancy hai, baaki 4 din mein RU aur Chennai ke beech mein bahut kam occupancy hai, sirf 30-50%.

1268 agreed.
3 MEMU can be used to replace those services. PM can be done in TPTY.
4. Stabling can be done in nearby stations, maintenance is a whole different thing.
5. PGT only has a MEMU shed and can't maintain long distance trains. Otherwise, KCVL should take primary maintenance (and Kollam Punalur should accommodate the rake length) so that KCVL TPTY RSA TPTY PGT is possible.
7. I don't have any objection via Hassan, but the capacity will be reduced due to Shiradi Ghats' 14-coach restriction.

I need more trains between RMM and TPTY/CAPE. Can't wait!

2 Rakes. RMM - TPTY/CAPE. Frequency badhani hai.

4. Stabling at TPTY is basically just parking the train at TPTY without taking up a maintenance slot. So, if this train sharing agreement (RSA) is given, it will free up a maintenance slot at TPTY and the pitlines at TEN are not being fully utilized.
5. PGT doesn't have pitlines. They only have a MEMU shed.
8. Instead, it would be better to operate MAS BZA VB on a shorter route and then extend it to SC or COA or whatever. A new VB can be given for TPTY VSKP, as there has been a demand for it since the beginning.

4. TPTY mein stabling karne ka matlab hai ki rakes ko TPTY mein ek pitline mein park kar diya jata hai. Agar ye RSA diya jaata hai, toh ek din ka maintenance slot TPTY pitlines mein khali ho jayega aur TEN ke pitlines kam istemal ho rahe hai. 5. PGT mein pitlines nahi hai. Wahaan sirf MEMU shed hai. 8. Iske bajaye, MAS BZA VB ko chota route mein chalaya jaa sakte hai aur ise SC ya COA ya kuch aur tak extend kiya jaa sakta hai. Aur ek naya VB TPTY VSKP ke liye diya ja sakta hai, jiski maang shuru se hi bani hui hai.
