Friends if Chambal and Shipra Express will again given back to Allahabad Junction and would be made to reach Mughalsarai via PFM-JNH-BSB route. Wouldn't it provide respite to passengers travelling to howrah from Allahabad or to GWL JHS INDB BPL UJN,this will save time since the train gets too late from Mirzapur side

Bro , these trains ( Shipra /Chambal ) earlier used to travel via ALD & during that time their punctuality were horrible. These trains had to undergo rake reversals + Loco change at ALD which took huge time plus you know better about NCR controlling ( ALD - MGS ). Even Imperial ( Mumbai ) Mail also had the same condition . So , in order to decongest ALD & improve their punctuality these trains are now running via COI. Though punctuality has improved from past but still they runs late & then the ALD - BSB route also not that reliable due to single line section in many areas. So , its better to run this trains on their existing route .
