12711 Pinakini SF did BZA-SPE 350kms in 5hrs 47mins.
12718 Ratnachal express covered BZA-VSKP 350kms in 6hrs 5mins.
Ratnachal express need to blast hard to catch up with Monster Pinakini In any of the day.

Here Ratnachal has to deal with both freight and passenger trains...Every day 4 to 5 freight trains waits at EE for starter..
12718 Ratnachal BZA-NASP 300kms in 4hrs 48 mins..
12711 need to do 30kms in 10mins to match with12718 which is not possible...
Don't mess with Ratnachal SF...
thats what i am also saying na....they are ICF rakes and max they can do is 110....so in that front no further speedup is possible...regarding route...BZA-GDR is a bit free compared to BZA-VSKP due to heavy freight traffic along with regular weekly and non-weekly trains running behind and ahead of Ratnam which is making tough to cover ...and also no.of stops not helping it either whether you agree or not...
Yes...traffic is almost doubled in BZA-VSKP section in last 3 to 4 years..Before 2013 Ratnachal used to run very fast...stops increased speed decreased...
