QUERRY: BRINDAVAN SF EXPRESS 12639/12640 The Southern Railway Officials as per media to NAME the existing Double Decker 22625/26 (without name) may be proposed as “Brindavan Double-Decker SF Express 22625/22626” during month of April/July’2015 onwards will be highly appreciated by its permanent Brindavan Passengers & Traders due to very convenient olden-timings of Brindavan. Already the esteemed SR ran the Brindavan Express with Double-Decker in mid80s and due to technical-reasons stopped. For the present Double Decker to perform is already taken Brindavan Express original Slot, and 3 CC AC removed, reduced Reserved-Coaches and PC. Therefore to Compensate running behind DD by 45-60 mins delay plus Late running.
-So it will be more honor to name DD...

Rlys should stop playing around with the name "Brindavan". It lost all its glory. Now, they want to fool us again with "Brindavan DD". Dismantle this DD and attach 1 or 2 coaches in all daily ICE SF running in south -- Lalbagh, Pallavan, Vaigai, Pinakini, Kovai, etc. DD will disappear from scene.
Shift the base to MYS. I feel it can run upto MYS with following TT. MYS DEP 0630 SBC ARR/ DEP 0840/ 0850 MAS ARR 1415. Return MAS DEP 1445 SBC ARR/ DEP 2010/ 2020 MYS ARR 2230.

I am not an expert in rly coach designs. Is it so difficult to change the coupling to suit with normal coaches? I believe "When there is a will, there is a way".
Anyway, these DD are proven white-elephants. To get some proper usage, I have suggested attaching 1-2 coaches in all trains.

I think most of the LHB coaches are CBC and not with conventional screw couplers
Can they not be modified?
If nothing is possible, still I would suggest dismantling DD rakes and attaching to daytime ICE and Shatabdi trains with LHB rakes. These DD AC can be called as "Garib CC or GCC" in Shatabdi with reduced fares. Then some improvements can be expected.
