Agree Agree
In my opinion railways should make future train sets with this coach composition 6 general class coaches including luggage loading capacity , 6 sleeper coaches , 8 ac class coaches ( which can include third ac or second ac or first ac or can be a mixture of these coaches ) and ( either 1 ac coach or 2 ac coaches can be removed to add pantry car coach and extra luggage coach ) so 6+6+8 total 20 and 2 electric locos ( 1 at front side of whole trainset and 1 at back side of the whole trainset ) so 20 +2 total 22 coaches , so that instead of giving lhb rakes to some trains which runs on a longer path railways should directly convert those mail or express or superfast express trains into these trains sets and cost of making lhb coaches will also be reduced or...

saved due to directly conversion of mail or express train into train sets and rake reversal time of many trains will be reduced wnd cost of doing rake reversal of a train will also be reduced ( due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) and speed of all trains can be increased (due to 2 engine 1 at back side of the trainset and 1 and front side of the train set ) . Please give your opinion on this but please don't give any argument related to politics so that my post don't get archived.

Or either railways can apply this coach composition in in some upcoming amrit bharat express trains so that we can see that whether this coach composition for train sets will become a successful idea or will become a flop idea.

Travelled in 12553 on 2nd November from Deos to Ndls.Train was led by home shed loco 37457 SPJ Wap 7.Got the opportunity to travel in this train after 6 years as train travel has reduced drastically since Agra Lucknow expressway has made commute by personal vehicle more viable. Whenever got the opportunity to travel by train most of the time Bsk and Gorakhdham had better availability. Run/Priority-Train was slightly delayed at deos due to late running 12565/02569.Crawled behind 02569 till Gkc where we overtook it.12565 departed ahead of us near 5:20 pm from gkp and we chased it all the way till gzb.Overtook 12555 also on the way and it was able to...

overtake only at Gzb where we were before time.Had got delayed from cnb but crossed dadri almost 25 minutes before time. Cleanliness-Train was well maintained and my coach was RCF made.2021 manufactured (212296/SER) which belonged to South eastern railway.Handwash was also properly filled and not the usual soapy water. Coach attendant was also very active and came twice after my boarding for giving the bedroll and asked to inform him first of any complaints.Replsced the bedroll of my co passenger who was not satisfied by the cleanliness of linen.Pantry car was next to my coach so in the evening went for a cup of soup which was not available but the staff/manager was considerate enough to send one cup of soup for me at my seat . Experiences like these make the journey memorable. Overall journey experience was just how I used to think of future Vaishali when used to see lhb trains in ICF era.Most Ac coaches were equipped with beautiful vinyls and the TB was also great.My coach originally was B6 but was changed to B1 at last moment as due to GS standardization B6 was removed.Only improvement needed is a 2to3hr late departure from SHC with existing TT.
