This also happened nearly two decades ago.We used to go from LJN to home station BV via LJN-BJU Express. That train today has RSA with LJN-JBP Express [though it is not strictly needed given double electrified tracks all along]. But back in the day, it was diesel tracks, much of it single line with a honking WDM-3D/A in tow and worst of all, no RSA. So the rake that used to come, same rake used to reverse from LJN.The turn around time was 2.5 hours but the train used to come terribly late and of course, would need easily ~1 hr for rakes to reverse and more importantly, passengers to board from souce. It didn't help that all trains then coming to NER used to undergo LR at LJN and almost all got higher priority than this crawler.

It was weird in those days with no double tracks meaning most stations had only 1 main platform and no PF #2 to speak of [and no FOB as well]. I remember another case where Avadh Express was to come at 'Babhnan' . The third , loop line was taken by a goods train. Since it was a single line section, a non stopping train was looped at the FIRST track[main platform] and the train which had the actual stoppage [Avadh Express] came at the middle one. What were the passengers supposed to do? We deboarded on the rail tracks. After waiting for a minute sandwiched b/w two stationery trains, both of them started moving in opposite directions and we were now sandwiched for a minute between 2 MOVING trains, which was worse.

Azad hind and jhelum has same coach composition in icf that means it has internal RSA and overall it has nine rake combined
It's confirmed that above trains will get LHB rakes except Danapur express (its already LHB)
They will have exact same CC (LHB), so they can swap rakes between those trains whenever needed
