When a search is conducted for All departures @ Dahej/DHF, the result is astonishing in as much as more than 30-40 trains shown are irrelevent.
From Dahej to Bhavnagar >> sea route is hardly around 40-50 kms but via train, the distance is 350 kms. All those trains in and around Bhavnagar routes are irrelevent.
Plz look into this and correct at the earliest.

We show departures from nearby stations based on either straight line distance or rail distance whichever is greater. As you correctly observed, Bhavnagar is 50km from Dahej by sea, but many times more by land/rail.
So, for all practical purposes, it should not be classified as a "nearby station". We shall have look into the search algorithm and modify it for anomalous situations like this.
Anyhow, it will be corrected soon. Thanks a lot for the observation.
